Berlitz posits that an advanced civillisation existed in the Americas thousands of years before Columbus, and that this civilisation was enriched by visitors from Europe and the East. He presents an argument for the presence of the existence of the legendary lost Atlantis, whose remnants survive today in the Azores and Canary Islands.
