Product Description Erich von Daniken again shows his flair for revealing the truths that his contemporaries have missed. After closely analyzing hundreds of ancient and apparently unrelated texts, he is now ready to proclaim that human history is nothing like the world religions claim and he has the proof!
In History Is Wrong, Erich von Daniken takes a closer look at the fascinating Voynich manuscript, which has defied all attempts at decryption since its discovery, and makes some intriguing revelations about the equally incredible Book of Enoch.
Von Daniken also unearths the astounding story of a lost subterranean labyrinth in Ecuador that is said to be home to an extensive library of thousands of gold panels. He supplies evidence that the metal library has links not only to the Book of Enoch but also to the Mormons, who have spent decades searching for it, believing it to contain the history of their forefathers.
And what about the mysterious lines in the desert of Nazca that resemble landing strips when viewed from the air? Archeologists claim they are ancient procession routes. Think again! cries von Daniken, as he reveals the data that the archeologists never even thought to check.
History Is Wrong will challenge your intellect...and maybe a few long-held beliefs. This is Erich von Daniken's best book in years!

Must read August 28, 2009 Christopher Augustin (Philadelphia, PA) 45 out of 48 found this review helpful
I have been a long time fan of Erich von Daniken's work and have never been disappointed by what I have read. History is Wrong is no exception. From the moment I started the book, I was swept away to a place of amazement and wonder. I was so caught up in the information being presented, I began wishing I had the resources to plan my own expedition to Ecuador to explore the caves discussed.
For many people, von Daniken's work represents fanciful outlandish theories of ancient astronauts interacting with human beings millennia ago. In this book in particular, it's those exact perceptions that von Daniken challenges, by asking scientifically motivated questions that the mainstream scientific community have failed to ask. It's through these questions that the accepted, though extremely hard to believe, explanations are subjected to scrutiny.
If you have any interest in the mysteries of past civilizations, regardless of possible extraterrestrial influences, this book is a must read. It's also a given for those of us who accept von Daniken's theories.
Excellent reading. October 26, 2009 R. Peeler (NC. USA) 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
This book is excellent reading for people with an open mine.
My wife and I have read almost all of Erich VonDaniken's books but we do so with great perceptive and an open mine.
History is not always as one person sees it.
Mr. von Daniken is at it again! October 4, 2009 Vladdy Trout (Florida, USA) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Mr. von Daniken is at it again. He's gonna make the un-hip traditional scientists squirm with his theories of extraterrestrial influence on the development of our ancient ancestors. This time Mr. von Daniken examines mysterious books, like the Voynich manuscript, and their possible connection to the ancient "Gods."
I like von Daniken's theories. Sure, they're wacky but they force us to think beyond the norm, to imagine possibilities outside the realm of what the science establishment tells us to think.
von Däniken is right July 21, 2010 mirasin 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It has been my main interest for a very long time to find out about what is wrong with the way history is being presented by the orthodox part of science and von Dänichen's book confirm my view
that he is wright and history is wrong. I recommend this book to everybody searching for facts and I give it top rating.
