Notes

In writing The Story of Atlantis (1896) and The Lost Lemuria (1904), Theosophist William Scott-Elliot (1849-1919) combined Ignatius Donnelly's scientific arguments and H.P. Blavatsky's esoteric facts with C.W. Leadbeater's clairvoyant investigations.

These two volumes were first combined in 1925, while this edition is a reprint of the 1962 revised edition. It includes six fold-out maps, four of Atlantis, "at its prime," "in its decadence," of "Ruta & Daitya" and "Poseidonis," and two of Lemuria, "at its greatest extent" and "at a later period." (For another map of Atlantis, see Vera Stanley Alder (1939), The Initiation of the World.)
