World class scholar Hugh Nibley (master of 22 languages and research specialist of the Middle East) enthusiastically endorsed this book. Authors Bruce Warren and Harold Brown researched ancient American cities and ruins for decades with dozens of trips to remote jungles in Central and South America. Warren (Ph.D., University of Arizona) spent nine seasons with the New World Archaeological Foundation in southern Mexico, conducting field and museum research. In the process he and Brown came up with incredible, eye-opening discoveries. While some voters on this site discount its very premise -- of Christ appearing to the inhabitants of ancient America -- they give this book a low rating without truly investigating it. But the authors are appreciative of those who approach this topic and this book with an open mind.
