Open the door to the next century with the only unabridged, definitive edition of the authentic prophecies of Michael Nostradamus since 1672.

Henry C. Roberts, regarded by many to be Nostradamus redivivus, presents the original medieval French text of this legendary seer, alongside the verbatim English translation of every Canto. Roberts reveals his uncanny ability to relate the mystic visions of Nostradamus to actual and future events and unlocks the predictions within each of the verses to show that Nostradamus foretold such world events as the French Revolution, the American Civil War, the abdication of the Shah of Iran, and the rise and fall of the Eastern bloc centuries before they transpired.

In his new introduction Roberts's grandson carries on with this work by revealing Nostradamus's ability to predict even recent events. Here Robert Lawrence shows that many of today's top news events such as the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin, the tragic death of Diana, Princess of Wales, as well as the Oklahoma City bombing and the downing of TWA Flight 800 were all predicted by Nostradamus. Even the revolution in worldwide communication brought about by the personal computer and the World Wide Web was foretold by this greatest of prophets.

The secrets of Nostradamus's power to foresee the future has never been fully explained, but with this book you will be able to experience for yourself the scope of that power and, with the aid of Henry C. Roberts's interpretations, confidently open the door and know what life holds in store for us into the next millennium.

Review:

Tabloid psychics come and go, but the name of the prophet Nostradamus stands like a pillar of granite, even after some 500 years. Henry C. Roberts's translations and interpretations of Nostradamus's Centuries are almost as enduring. First published in 1947 as an attempt to make a complete Centuries book available to the public, the Complete Prophecies of Nostradamus has reached its fourth edition with few revisions. This unabridged, definitive edition with verbatim translations printed side by side with the original Old French is one of the most accurate interpretations available in print.

Book Description:

A new and updated 2012 illustrated edition of Nostradamus' Complete Prophecies by Robert Lawrence, the grandson of Henry C. Roberts, author of the original edition, which continues a 75-year old family legacy and offers fresh and inspiring insights for our times.

In light of the many momentous events which have occurred in the intervening seventeen years since the last edition (Global Warming, the end of the Cold War, Chernobyl, The 9/11 Attacks, Hurricane Katrina, the Arab Spring, Occupy Wall Street and many others), this revised and updated edition not only finds evidence in the Prophecies of these more recent events, it also offers a more spiritual and empowered interpretation of them.
