Reviews

[Russell Hall · Rating 3 out of 5]

For a book published in the 19th century, it does show much of its time, rather than of the Pyramid. It is interesting to read a book about world time lines without the all important World Wars. I am not sure how much to acknowledge from this book, but it is always important to read for different perspectives.

Very interesting read to discover the bibilical connections. The author gives a thought provoking discussion regarding Job/Melchesidec and the Shepherd Kings connections regarding the building of the Great Pyramid.
