Quest for the Lost Civilization

Originally televised on the Discovery Channel, this is a three part series featuring controversial author, adventurer, and scholar-mystic Graham Hancock. Listen as he tells about his journeys all around the world for proof that a truly advanced civilization once existed many thousands of years ago. The series includes footage of the pyramids of Mexico and Egypt, the ruins of Angkor Wat in Cambodia, the monumental head statues on Easter Island, and the megaliths of Peru and Bolivia. Hancock's quest for added proof of his theories will probably be of interest to those who find theories about mankind's history intriguing, even if they remain skeptics after watching this unique program.
