On May 5 in the year 2000, the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn will be aligned with the Earth and her Moon. On that day the ice buildup at the South Pole will upset the Earth's axis - sending trillions of tons of ice and water sweeping over the surface of our planet. Not since the days of Noah has Humankind been faced with this ultimate catastrophe. This edition of Richard Noone's classic contains the original text with its incredible wealth of factual evidence, including 223 illustrations and interviews with geologists, archaeologists, and climatologists. The new epilogue details exciting current research further confirming Noone's hypotheses.
