description: The mystery of Plato's Atlantis has stimulated the imagination of many, particularly since Ignatius Donnelly's seminal work; Atlantis: The Antediluvian World was published in 1882 and still in print today. It gripped the attention of all classes of people from academics to bicycle mechanics, generating a breathtaking spectrum of speculation. The advent of the internet has allowed the number of conjectural books and papers on the subject to proliferate greatly. Although I am neither an academic nor a bicycle mechanic, I have spent fifteen years studying the incredible range of Atlantis theories on offer, in the course of which, I managed to compile the world's largest English-language website relating to all aspects of the topic of Atlantis. With those credentials, I now feel justified in promoting my own considered views on the location and time of Plato's Atlantis. This book puts forward some new ideas and expanded others, all combined with logic and what is so often neglected when dealing with the subject, common sense. This book offers some compelling evidence to answer the questions of when, where, who and what Atlantis was, based primarily on Plato's own descriptions.
