Substance: The thesis is that ancient myths of gods and titans are twisted memories of early discoveries of the American continents, which has a certain plausibility. The evidence he produces is certainly suggestive, although not conclusive. One would do best to use this book as a guide to other
Style: Bailey is not a good writer, and does not marshal his evidence persuasively. He makes unsubstantiated claims as if they were proven by assertion, and repeats prior claims unnecessarily. Although the subject was interesting, the reading was tedious.
