How many worlds exist within the earth we see every day? Though there are many mysteries we cannot even imagine, the scientific discoveries and inventions of recent decades-along with myth, folklore, and various unexplainable events that have been recorded down through time-suggest to French scientist Jacques Bergier that the surface of the earth may be more complex, and its history more incredible, than is generally supposed. Among the possibilities he puts forth in this astonishing new book: -There may be secret doors of the earth, phenomenal subterranean passageways to other dimensions. -Extraordinary beings among us, who are as old as the planet, have formed secret societies to safeguard and propagate a body of knowledge known only to themselves. -Because this knowledge is transmitted genetically, these people initiate into their societies only those beings with similar chromosomal makeup; these are "the immortals in our midst." -The centers of energy these secret societies create probably communicate with extraterrestrial intelligences in the galaxy, exchanging information by means of the "collapsars" (black holes) in space. -Interdimensional portals have dispensed "powers" to humans, such as Charles Mallory Hatfield, the amazing rainmaker; Goethe's physicians, alchemists with superior knowledge who saved his life; and Louis Rodgers, who is said to have been seen repeatedly in two different places at the same time. Citing also authors as diverse as H.P. Lovecraft, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Teilhard de Chardin, Bergier opens a mind-boggling vista of unexpected mysteries. In the hierarchy of this universe, to paraphrase de Chardin, the fantastic alone has a chance of being real. Secret Doors of the Earth is not science fiction but an interpretation of "improbable facts" that will stir and challenge your imagination. Jacques Bergier is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. He lives in Paris.

This book is Childress' thorough examination of the early hollow earth stories of Richard Shaver, and the fascination that fringe fantasy subjects such as lost continents, UFOs, and the hollow earth have had on people. Shaver's rare 1948 book, I Remember Lemuria is reprinted in its entirety, and the book is packed with illustrations from Ray Palmer's Amazing Stories issues of the 1940s. Childress discusses famous hollow earth books and delves deep into whatever reality may be behind the stories of tunnels underground.
