This armchair researcher, with no official post graduate schooling was not constrained by conventional theories when studying his many references used for this book. Combine this with a natural ability to organize material and a high intellect and penchant for solving puzzles all being used on ancient mysteries, meant that slowly these mysteries melted into feasible though somewhat fantastic theories.
