Searching for Atlantis

By Barbara A. Woyt, Janna Silverstein, Ann Lewis

The legend of Atlantis evokes pictures of fanciful wonders and horrific catastrophe. In this riveting story, students examine how the legend began with Plato and how it has excited the public imagination for hundreds of years. The various theories that have been offered about the lost kingdom by scholars and mystics throughout history are examined, including recent explorers' claims of finding the site with the use of underwater tools and satellite technology.
