Author, 1934. 246 p.
Translations of fragments of the "Sacred Inspired Writings-··Scientific Section"
written over 70, 000 years ago on the lost continent of Mu.
----- The lost continent of Mu. New York, Ives Washburn, 1931. 335 p.
Information about Mu based on translations of two se~s of ancient tablets:
(1) the Naacal tablets discovered in India, and (2) stone tablets discovered by
William Niven in Mexico. Some of the subjects em.bodied are an account of
the creation in m!.nute detait; life and its origin; the origin and workings of
the "four Great Cosmic Forces," and the creation of woman. Al'thor asserts
that both sets of tablets establish that at one time earth had ~n ancient civili-
zation which was superior to our own and far in advance of us in important
essentials.
----- The sacred symbllls of Mu. New York, I. Washburn, 1939. 296 p.
Evidence is preser.ted that all religions have common origin in Lemuria's
sacred writir.&s: Moses condensed ' The 42 Questions" of the Osirian reEgion
into our Ten Commandments; the Lord's Prayer and our Proverbs are in
the sacred writings of Mu.

literature. New York, Gnome Press, 1954. 362 p.
Legends concerning Atlantis, Mu, and other ''lost continents'' are explored and

An attempt to demonstrate several propositions: (1) that there once existed in
the Atlantic Ocean, opposite the mouth of the Mediterranean Sea, a large
island--the remnant of an Atlantic continent--known to the ancient world as
Atlantis; (2) that the description of this island given by Plato is not fable but
history; (3) that Atlantis was the region where man first rose from a srate of
barbarism to civilization; (4) that the gods and goddesses of the ancient Greeks,
the Phoenicians, the Hindus, and the Scandinavians were simply the kings,
queens, and heroes of Atlantis--the acts attributed to them being a confused
recollection of real historical events; (5) that the mythologies of Egypt and
Peru represented the original religion of Atlantis, which was sun-worship;
(6) that the oldest colony formed by the Atlanteans was probably Egypt, whose
civilization was a reproduction of that of the Atlantic island; (7) that the
implements of the Bronze Age were derived from Atlantis and that the
Atlanteans were the first manufacturers of iron; (8) that the Phoenician alphabet,
