Joining The Dots
I have now published my new book, Joining The Dots, which offers a fresh look at the Atlantis mystery. I have addressed the critical questions of when, where and who, using Plato's own words, tempered with some critical thinking and a modicum of common sense.
Brown, Alfred Samler (N)
Alfred Samler Brown (?-1935) was greatly devoted to the Canary Islands and was responsible for expanding British tourism to the archipelago through his popular guidebook, Madeira and the Canary Islands[1257], which ran to fourteen editions before his death.
As far as I can ascertain the first edition of Brown’s book was published in 1890, a few years after Donnelly‘s Atlantis was launched and its conclusions seems to have prompted Brown to consider the possibility of a connection with the Canaries without actually endorsing the idea. He offers very little to Atlantology, with outdated geology and rascist views.
