Giza, the Truth: The People, Politics, and History Behind the World's Most Famous Archaeological Site Book
"Lawton and Ogilvie-Herald's insight into the great Giza debate is superb. I urge everyone to read and digest Giza: The Truth before they even think about picking up another book on alternative Egypt." Andrew Collins, author of Gateway to Atlantis and Gods of Eden "Lawton and Ogilvie-Herald have gone where no academic has dared to venture, and have exposed the raw truth behind the archaeological history and politics of Egypt's greatest monuments." David Rohl, The Express "A refreshing and realistic overview of research, exploration, questions and answers surrounding the Giza Plateau. A significant contribution to the field." Rudolf Gantenbrink, Giza researcher What secrets does the Giza Plateau really hold? Are the pyramids simple burial chambers, astronomical devices, or even power plants? Who built them and the enigmatic Sphinx, and when? Does a Hall of Records await discovery at Giza, and if so what does it contain? These questions have animated both the public and a long line of dedicated researchers for years. Giza: The Truth offers the first balanced, objective, and unbiased assessment of the entire range of theories, both orthodox and alternative, that attempt to answer these questions and many more. Authors Ian Lawton and Chris Ogilvie-Herald combine their exhaustive research into the history of investigations at Giza with their own clandestine explorations, creating the definitive work on the Giza Plateau. They uncover the truth about possible secret chambers and tunnels, and delve into the cover-ups and conspiracies, claims and counterclaims that make up the tangled web of political intrigue that has come to dominate the Plateau in recent years. What emerges is an epic story of earnest researchers and opportunistic charlatans, of rival camps waging a war for power, credibility, and ultimate control over the legacy of Giza. Ian Lawton is a former management information systems consultant. He has been researching ancient civilizations for more than a decade, and since 1997 has been a full-time writer-researcher. His second book, Genesis Unveiled, will also be published by Invisible Cities Press. Lawton lives in Hamble, England. Chris Ogilvie-Herald is former editor of Quest for Knowledge magazine and organizer of The Giza Debate, a two-day international conference in London aimed at bringing together conflicting orthodox and alternative views in a series of lectures culminating in a public forum. He lives in London, England.Read More
