Charles Frambach Berlitz Libri

Con II mistero dell'Atlantide, Charles Berlitz, autore del best-seller mondiale Bermuda: ii triangolo maledetto, archeologo, viaggiatore, subacqueo e appassionato linguista, ripropone alla nostra attenzione l'enigma non risolto della civiltà sommersa del continente Atlantide. All'inizio di questo secolo lo studioso americano Edgar Cayce aveva predetto che Atlantide sarebbe riemersa dal profondo dell'oceano nel 1968 nei pressi dell'isola di Bimini, e nel 1969 un pilota, sorvolando quelI'area, vide un tempio antichissimo affiorare dall'acqua. Una moderna spedizione archeologica ha annunciato di aver ritrovato i resti della vera Atlantide tra le isole greche del Mediterraneo. Tutto ciò dimostra l'esistenza di un vivo interesse per questo argomento: il mistero resta ancora molto fitto, anche perché delle molte teorie nate intorno al nome Atlantide, nessuna può dirsi veramente soddisfacente; la naturale curiosità dell'uomo contribuisce ad alimentare ogni sorta di leggende: é stato scritto e immaginato di tutto, ormai. Questo libro é sia un consuntivo storico di tutte le teorie e le dispute che sono sorte nei secoli intorno al nome Atlantide (dal dialogo Timeo di Platone, alle ultime spedizioni e scoperte fatte a Bimini e in Grecia) sia l'esposizione della nuova, personale, attendibile e documentatissima teoria dell'autore che attribuisce alla “perduta” civiltà dell'Atlantide una sua precisa funzione storica, sociale e culturale.

To this day, it remains true that for over half a century, ships and planes have been disappearing without trace in this extraordinary stretch of water between Florida, the Sargasso Sea and Bermuda.A sequel to The Bermuda Triangle, Without A Trace examines the evidence surrounding the series of baffling incidents that have taken place in the Devil's Triangle, and proposes theories and explanations for them. Featuring personal stories of unusual experiences in the area from survivors, reports by officials on duty with the Navy, Air Force or commercial airlines, who had previously been warned not to discuss the incidents they had witnessed, and suggested explanations for disappearances that are happening even now!

An investigation into the mystery surrounding the lost civilisation of Atlantis, in which the author reveals the results of his underwater explorations for the fabled site, and describes what he found at the location mentioned by ancient writers.

One day in 1943, at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, something happened . . . Suddenly the U.S.S. Eldridge, a fully manned destroyer escort, vanished into a green fog, within seconds appeared in Norfolk, Virginia, and then reappeared in Philadelphia! For over thirty-six years officials have denied this, have denied any experimentation to render matter invisible -- have denied the reality of THE PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT. If so, why -- * were all the men aboard ship who survived discharged as mentally unfit? * did a scientific researcher on the project meet a mysterious death? * were identities hidden, documents lost, and amazing connections between UFO sightings and events in the Bermuda Triangle denied? THE PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT -- the first full-length documented report on a chilling unsolved mystery that's been discussed for years. Now, official documents and first-hand stories have been revealed. Here is the truth in a report so shattering it is difficult to believe it's NOT fiction.

You may have heard of it as 'the Hoodoo Sea', 'the Graveyard of the Atlantic' or 'the Devil's Triangle'. But it is most famous as 'the Bermuda Triangle' - an area of the Western Atlantic between Bermuda and Florida where, since 1945, over 100 ships and planes and 1,000 people have vanished - without a trace.
