Coral Castle: Photo Tour (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781477582398)

Journey through a photo tour of Coral Castle. (Includes 59 full color images)"Ed Leedskalnin, born in 1887, Latvia created a monumental coral garden in the early 1900's, some say as a tribute to a woman he wished to marry. He spent the days awaiting her return toiling, carving, and moving coral rocks himself secretly, often at times during the cover of darkness. Speculation over this modern marvel sparked tails that Ed was in possession of an anti-gravity machine or some sort of alien technology. He often made references to the Egyptians and that he learned the secrets used to build the great pyramids. How a five foot tall, 100 lb. man could move rocks of such weights still defies present day explanation. One of the most remarkable pieces is the fully operational 3 ton turnstile gate resting on an old wheel bearing. The gate can be opened almost effortlessly with the push of a hand. " - J.C. Vintner
