| Summary |
"The Story of Atlantis and the Lost Lemuria" by W. Scott-Elliot is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The work explores the fabled civilizations of Atlantis and Lemuria, delving into their geographical, historical, and ethnological significance. The author examines the rise and fall of these ancient societies to provide insights into the broader context of human evolution and civilization. At the start of the book, the author presents a preface that discusses the significance of clairvoyance and psychic powers in historical research, particularly in exploring the past. W. Scott-Elliot emphasizes that traditional methods of historical investigation often overlook the potential insights provided by psychic faculties. The opening also outlines the importance of understanding the civilization of Atlantis, its various sub-races, and the calamities that led to its downfall, setting the stage for a detailed examination of these ancient cultures. By establishing a connection between past events and modern understanding, the author aims to illustrate the relevance of ancient histories in framing our current and future societal developments.
