Sailing to Paradise
"In Sailing to Paradise, Jim Bailey alters our fundamental understanding of history. Bailey draws on the labors and findings of a great variety of experts - archaeologists, language experts, anthropologists, biologists, historians, collectors of myth and oral tradition, and geographers - and sets out to show that there has really been a global village several times before." "Applying his extensive research, Bailey shows the genesis of our various religions, the spread of the matriarchal world, the worship of the Great Goddess, the early history of Africa, and the early worldwide use of mining and technology.

"Sailing to Paradise is a brilliant, comprehensive recreation of history that will appeal to anyone fascinated with the possibilities of our far-distant past."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
