The Phantom Of The Poles (1906) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781437231502)

The Phantom of the Poles is a book written by William Reed in 1906. The book is centered around the idea that the Earth is hollow and that there is a polar opening at both the North and South Poles. Reed argues that the poles may be entrances to a vast inner world that is inhabited by a highly advanced civilization. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides a brief history of polar exploration and the theories surrounding the shape of the Earth. Reed argues that the Earth is not a solid sphere but rather a hollow shell with a diameter of about 6,400 kilometers. The second part of the book discusses the evidence for the existence of the polar openings. Reed cites various accounts of explorers who claim to have seen strange phenomena at the poles, such as unusual cloud formations and auroras that seem to emanate from the ground. He also argues that the polar regions are warmer than they should be, given their distance from the equator, which he believes is evidence of geothermal activity from within the Earth.The final part of the book explores the possibility of an inner world within the Earth. Reed argues that this world may be inhabited by a highly advanced civilization that has been able to harness the Earth's natural resources in ways that are beyond our current technological capabilities. He speculates that this civilization may have had contact with ancient civilizations on the surface of the Earth and may even be responsible for some of the unexplained phenomena in human history.Overall, The Phantom of the Poles is a fascinating exploration of a controversial theory about the shape of the Earth and the possibility of a hidden world within it. While some of Reed's arguments may seem far-fetched, the book is an intriguing read for anyone interested in alternative theories about the nature of our planet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
