I've actually been reading 1421 a bit lately myself (I haven't finished it yet), and while it's very interesting and the ideas that Menzies proposes gives you a lot to think about, from what I've read online about Menzies and his book there's actually a lot that should be taken with a grain of salt. He's been criticized very heavily for distorting much of the evidence that he uses, and that he often lacks the proper evidence to support his claims. I don't know all of the details surrounding these issues, but a simple google search about him or his book will bring up quite a lot of interesting results that can explain things far better than I can. It seems that many historians weren't too happy with this book. On that note, another book that I haven't finished reading yet but is similar to 1421 is The Island of Seven Cities by Paul Chiasson. It's basically about Chiasson's research concerning Cape Breton Island in Canada and how he believes that there was an ancient Chinese settlement built there in the 1400's or earlier (well before Europeans arrived). Similar to 1421, Chiasson's findings have also received a bit of criticism. Anyway, regardless of the validity of the findings in these books, they have both been said to be very interesting reads. From what I've read so far, I would definitely agree. Just don't take everything that you read for an automatic truth. | ||
