Publisher's Synopsis
Symmes's Theory of Concentric Spheres is a book written by an anonymous author who identifies themselves only as ""A Citizen of the United States"". The book was published in 1826 and presents a theory that the Earth is not a solid sphere, but rather a hollow one with a habitable interior. The author argues that the Earth is composed of several concentric spheres, with openings at the poles that lead to the interior. The author claims that the interior of the Earth is lit by a central sun and is home to a variety of creatures and civilizations. The book also includes diagrams and illustrations to support the author's arguments. Symmes's Theory of Concentric Spheres was a controversial work in its time, and its ideas continue to be debated by scientists and scholars today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
