Lost Continents & The Hollow Earth
I Remember Lemuria and the Shaver Mystery
by David Hatcher Childress & Richard Shaver
Lost Continents & the Hollow Earth is Childress’ thorough examination of the early hollow earth books of Richard Shaver and the fascination that fringe fantasy subjects such as lost continents and the hollow earth have had for the American public. Shaver’s rare 1948 book I Remember Lemuria is reprinted in its entirety, and the book is packed with illustrations from Ray Palmer’s Amazing Stories issues of the 1940s. Palmer and Shaver told of tunnels running through the earth—tunnels inhabited by the Deros and Teros, humanoids from an ancient spacefaring race that had inhabited the earth, eventually going underground, hundreds of thousands of years ago. Childress discusses the famous hollow earth books and delves deep into whatever reality may be behind the stories of tunnels in the earth. Operation High Jump to Antarctica in 1947 and Admiral Byrd’s bizarre statements, tunnel systems in South America and Tibet, the underground world of Agartha, the belief of UFOs coming from the South Pole, more.
