Synopsis

This book presents the author's musings on the formation of our planet and the events that have shaped its history. By comparing ancient traditions, cultural myths, and observed geological oddities, the author sets out to prove that many of the Earth's current topographical features are the result of a universal flood that occurred not long ago. The author also posits that humanity's presence on earth is a relatively new phenomenon, the result of a post-diluvian renewal of life. The author's perspective attempts to reconcile geology and paleontology with the biblical account of creation and the flood. The book provides a unique perspective on the history of our planet and will prove thought-provoking for anyone interested in Earth's geological or religious history.
