Atlantis: Fact of fiction?
This particular Rosicrucian Digest is a compilation of both fiction (identified) and non-fiction (likewise identified). The best article is by Steven Armstrong. It gives an indepth, as well as a wide ranging, history of Atlantis. It covers the ancient sources and brings the discussion to all the current research. This one article is worth examining this publication.

This is yet another book on the subject of Atlantis, this was out in 2006. The book starts with going into various ancient sources of stories about Atlantis (Plato wasn't the only one to write about it.) The deluge is mentioned (and it occurs in the mythology of very many ancient civilizations all over the world. Probably indicates the impact of a comet or meteor/small asteroid in the ocean that resulted in a massive tsunami.) There's also old legends about gods coming down to Earth having sex with women and producing children.
The book moves on to materials from different authors and what they thought about Atlantis. Sir Francis Bacon is one along with Blavatsky (a very controversial person), Ignatius Donnelly and Edgar Cayce.
There's some speculation that Atlantis could have been located in Antarctica. The book does point out, though, that undersea studies have not revealed the presence of any continent that was previously unknown. It also points out that the entire story could have been a story set up to teach others about the misuse of power and the fall of civilizations that misuse their power.
The book is different from most other Atlantis books in its emphasis on old writings.
