What was the Ark of the Covenant and where is it now? Did an alien race from beyond the stars create the first men? Were the megaliths of Malta and Brittany's menhirs built by extraterrestrial giants? Was there a nuclear catastrophe in ancient times?

Profusely illustrated, this thought-provoking book adds to the credibility of von Daniken's theories.
