Untold Secrets of Planet Earth: Dire Dragons

This is an interesting book; unique in its presentation of facts related to when "dinosaurs" lived. It looks at various cultures from around the world through the lens of ancient art—carvings, statuary, Bible illuminations, embroidery—and relates these ancient art pieces that depict "dragons" to actual dinosaurs that have been discovered in paleontology excavations. The history is fascinating, and high-quality artwork and illustrations throughout the volume make this book an enjoyable read. Leave it out on your coffee table. It's sure to get a conversation started when visitors come over.

Great book. Well written, very informative, and very good photos. The author checked out and went to many of the places he mentions in the book. You will not be disappointed, if you are looling for information on dinosaurs and creation.The only thing I didn't like was the book doesn't lay open and flat on the table, which would make it a great coffee table book.

This is a lovely book. It is full of images of artwork throughout history depicting dinosaurs which indicates that humans and dinosaurs walked the earth at the same time. The artwork is very compelling.

Used this for research. Very good, great pictures.

I like it

The photography of the ancient artifacts in this book is excellent. Some of the clearest I have seen.The author spent his own time and money traveling the globe in search of physical evidence indicating that dinosaurs (Before "dinosaur" was coined in the mid 1800's, the term "dragon" was used) and mankind lived contemporaneously. The evidence gathered in this book is compelling. I recommend it to anyone interested in this topic.

This is an easy-to-read book with full-color pictures of the various dinosaur drawings, carvings and textiles. The author went around the world doing primary research and using high quality cameras to produce high quality pictures.

This book is beautiful. Page after page of stunning photographs and lively text. It catalogs many images drawn or carved by ancient cultures that show dragons/dinosaur creatures. I can't wait to get this author's next book!

This Book is a Must-Have for the person interested in the subject of Dinosaur and Human Co-Existence - and it's relevance to the ''Creation/Evolution'' and ''Age of the Earth'' debates that continue today in the 21st century.The book is lavishley illustrated with color pictures of ''Ancient'' or ''Medevil'' Dragon artwork from all around the world -''Old World'' as well as '' New World''- and compares this artwork with modern re-constructions of known Dinosaurs.The artwork comparisons show that the creatures that were called ''Dragons'' in ancient times were very likely living ''Dinosaurs'' that our human ancestors saw in real life. The book in it's beginning chapters discusses the latest dicoveries of unpetrified dinosaur bones -some with preserved soft tissues on the inside!-as well the presence of CARBON 14 in these same dinosaur bones.WHY is the presense of carbon 14 so importent?Because even in the evolutionists own textbooks the carbon 14 looses all it's radioactivity in less than 100,000 years!-showing that any fossil in the so called ''Geologic-Column'' that still has carbon 14 in it's preserved hard/soft Tissues can ONLY be ''THOUSANDS'' and NOT ''MILLIONS'' OF YEARS IN AGE! The ''Dinosaur Fossil Bonebeds''[which also contain water animals] cover thousands of square miles/kilometers are now shown to be laid down by a massive FLOOD and NOT a '' meandering river'' as stated in most evolutionary textbooks .The mounting evidence best conforms to the the ''YOUNG EARTH'' Creationist viewpoint of earth/human history than the evolutionist''OLD EARTH'' viewpoints of earth/human history! This evidence also shows that[in the post flood world] the dinosaurs along many other ''PREHISTORIC''animals were probably driven to their[apparent] extinction by HUMAN activities such as overhunting and the conversion of the animals habitat to farmland.A Definate ''must have'' book!

The most eye-opening and thourogh book of its kind! The author really let's the images do the talking when comparing old depictions of dragons with modern reconstructions of dinosaurs. If you, or someone you know, has doubts about the dino/dragon connection, get this book and prepare to be amazed!

Perfect condition and beautiful art work

Great book - we give it as a gift

The book is very beautifull and well documented. I think that every reader can to be interested by the Dragons.
