Download or read book A Guide to the Phantom Dark Age written by Emmet Scott and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scott confronts conventional historians and looks at the evidence, archaeological and textual, for the proposition that three centuries, roughly between 615 and 915, never existed and are "phantom" years. The author shows in detail how no archaeology exists for these three centuries, and that the material remains of the seventh century closely resemble those of the tenth, and lie directly beneath them. This is the first book on this topic in the English language, though Heribert Illig's books on the same topic, 'Das erfundene Mittelalter' and 'Wer hat an der Uhr Gedreht?' have been best sellers in German-speaking Europe.
