    including earthquakes and

    familiar?

    What
    will this mean for us?
    Should we take seriously
    their claims that this
    will be a time of
    apocalyptic cataclysm?
    And just how did the
    Maya, a clever but
    nonetheless Stone Age
    people, calculate the
    date of an astronomical
    event that would take
    place many millennia in
    the future?

    These
    are just some of the
    questions posed by Adrian
    Gilbert, co-author of
    the international
    bestseller The Mayan
    Prophecies    . In The
    End of Time    , he
    revisits the ancient
    archaeological sites of
    the Maya and makes
    astonishing new
    discoveries about their

Mysterious Scotland
Mysterious Scotland
    MYSTERIOUS SCOTLAND
    presents an extraordinary
    array of the weird and
    wonderful heritage of the
    country. In it, Michael
    Balfour examines strange
    stories from the moors,
    forests, rivers, holy
    wells and lochs, where -
    as well as the old
    legends and dark secrets
    which he prises out of
    palaces, castles and
    cathedrals - he finds
    monsters, ghoulies,
    unsolved murders and
    ancient
    cures.Investigating a
    land where the past is
    reflected in the present,
    the author has roamed
    all around Scotland,
    exploring standing
    stones, mermaid beaches
    and magic springs. He
    seeks out new theories
    about the prehistoric,
    Celtic and Pictish
    stones, carvings, tombs
    and brochs which are
    scattered across the
    country. Among his many
    wonderful discoveries,
    he unearths
    long-forgotten
    prophecies, puzzling
    tales from the bothies,
    consuming traditions and
    distillers' tricks, and
    finds evidence of the
    legendary Highland second
    sight. Not forgotten are
    the great historical
    figures who throng the
    pages, each making a
    unique contribution to
    MYSTERIOUS SCOTLAND. This
    book is the perfect
    introduction to the
    amazing hidden history
    which permeates Scottish
    lives and landscape.
