Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if the buildings disappearing beneath our sidewalks are telling us something about the past we've overlooked?Across the world, old buildings contain windows, doors, arches, and entire floors below today's streets. Historic photographs show structures apparently being excavated from deep soil. Old maps label enormous regions as Tartary, while photographs of nineteenth-century World's Fairs reveal spectacular cities seemingly constructed in remarkably short periods.To supporters of the Mud Flood and Tartaria theories, these are clues to a forgotten civilization and a catastrophic event missing from conventional history.Historians, archaeologists, engineers, and geologists offer very different explanations.The Buried World investigates both sides.Rather than assuming the Mud Flood theory is true-or dismissing it because it challenges accepted history-this book asks: What does the evidence actually show?Travel from Chicago, Seattle, and Sacramento to St. Petersburg, Prague, London, and Rome while examining real examples of structures buried beneath modern cities.Discover how nineteenth-century Chicago raised its streets and physically lifted enormous masonry buildings using thousands of screw jacks.Explore Sacramento, where devastating floods led to streets being raised and former ground floors becoming underground spaces.Descend into Seattle's underground city and examine how the Great Fire of 1889 and reconstruction transformed its streets.Then investigate St. Petersburg, one of the locations frequently cited by Mud Flood researchers, where monumental architecture and partially buried lower levels deserve examination.The book also explores historic maps labeled Tartary. Was Tartary simply an old geographic term for vast portions of Asia, or do these maps preserve evidence of something history has forgotten?You'll examine the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition and other World's Fairs whose enormous classical buildings have become central to alternative-history research. Were these magnificent structures temporary exhibition buildings, or is there evidence supporting claims that some were inherited from an earlier civilization?Most importantly, the investigation goes beneath the photographs and into the ground.If a massive Mud Flood buried cities around the world only a few centuries ago, what should scientists actually find?The book examines archaeology, geology, cultural layers, construction fill, flood deposits, historical records, and dating methods to explore how a catastrophic deposit could be distinguished from centuries of normal urban development.Inside you'll investigate: - Buried windows, doors, streets, and building levels- The origins of the Mud Flood and Tartaria theories- Historic maps showing Tartary- Chicago's remarkable building-raising operations- Seattle's underground streets- Sacramento's buried nineteenth-century city- The architecture of St. Petersburg- Underground layers in Prague, Rome, and London- The spectacular nineteenth-century World's Fairs- Claims of forgotten construction and energy technologies- Orphan trains and civilization-reset theories- How historical photographs can reveal evidence-or mislead- How archaeologists date buried urban layers- How geologists identify catastrophic deposits- What could prove or disprove a worldwide Mud FloodThe Buried World does not ask you to blindly accept either side.Examine the photographs. Study the documented history. Consider the competing explanations. Look at what archaeologists and geologists have found.Then decide for Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
