This is an extraordinarily unusual book.

I heard about Worlds Beyond The Poles after it was mentioned in a certain controversial debate regarding the shape of Earth. I'm sure anyone who has used the internet in their daily lives over the last few years has at least heard of this debate. It happened to be one that I was grossly interested in.

Anyway, the book was mentioned, not because it particularly supported or negated the theory, but because it was a radical and original take on the topic. I wa

This is an extraordinarily unusual book.

Anyway, the book was mentioned, not because it particularly supported or negated the theory, but because it was a radical and original take on the topic. I was intrigued by the fact that it was written during a decade of great discovery and innovation, and the polarising (pun-intended) nature of the content spurned me to purchase it.

In reviewing this, I will do the opposite of Mr. Giannini and remain as concise as possible. This is a book for thinkers, those who can disconnect from their sense of reality for at least a short while to entertain the notions offered. It is a tremendously fascinating piece of literature, not only because of the abstract concept put forward, but also the confident nature in which it is written. The author is convinced that he, and only he, is endowed with the understanding of the true shape and layout of our universe, and he felt it was his destiny to convey it to the world. What's magical is that it's impossible to disprove, and in a strange way, it has a sort of logical consistency about it.

But it is not well written. It reads like the disjointed, ego-driven ramblings of a maniac. With each passing page, I was left wide-eyed and incredulous at how a man with such an outlandish theory could remain so self-assured. But there is something about what he says that sparked my imagination and gave me the strength to plow through a book which is five times longer than it needed to be. Perhaps, though, the only way to deliver such a concept to us poor, unenlightened readers of the future, is by bashing it repeatedly over our heads in an occulted and authoritative manner.

I'm pleased to have this book in my personal collection, but unless there are some mind-shattering revelations to come about our universe, this volume will remain just a conversation piece, a brain-teaser, a relic from the mind of the twentieth century's most progressive thinker - or perhaps just the ravings of a man inflicted by deep psychosis.

Awkward to rate, as it is so strangely written, difficult to grasp, and even more difficult to finish. But for originality alone, this deserves high marks.

4/5.

This is a text book. It seemed excessively wordy in making a relatively simple point. I often got lost in all the extra verbiage. Anyway, I struggled thru and did pick out some gems. Therefore it was not a total write off. I shall go in search of clear and perhaps more up to date Authors of the fascinating subject.

I do recommend reading this book but don't put it on the top of your list. I bought the paper copy and did not read the digital copy here. The book makes some great points and recounts the end state of what Adm Byrd accomplished, but, there is very limited proof provided in the book. I am a flat-earther and had high hopes for this book to provide information other than what I could find on Google but it failed to deliver.

This book is 100% true!
This waking-up is hard. the person that has written this book can back up every last thing that he says.
It is a book about facts and figures.

Hard read 📖, few interesting pages. Keep repeating the same concepts

Book of the true world around us, everyone should read it immediately!
This is also a keeper, will read it again.

You've heard, no doubt, the phrase "word salad." This book is word slaw. I did, however, find parts of it interesting and thought Giannini's model of the universe intriguing. Although he claims his work is not promoting the idea of a flat earth, he does refer to it analogously as a "banner." He acknowledges our ability to navigate the earth east to west and west to east, but never a route over both poles. This, coupled with testimony from Admiral Byrd, leads him to the conclusion that there are You've heard, no doubt, the phrase "word salad." This book is word slaw. I did, however, find parts of it interesting and thought Giannini's model of the universe intriguing. Although he claims his work is not promoting the idea of a flat earth, he does refer to it analogously as a "banner." He acknowledges our ability to navigate the earth east to west and west to east, but never a route over both poles. This, coupled with testimony from Admiral Byrd, leads him to the conclusion that there are no northern or southern ends to Earth, but rather mere ice barriers that keep us from penetrating the lands beyond in a completely connected universe. Nevertheless, he doesn't explain the east-west continuation in his banner analogy. He does suggest a possible cylindrical shape to the universe that would satisfy that particular parameter. His claim that stars and planets are mere tricks of our eye lens — and subsequently every lens ever created, be it telescope or microscope, based on our own limited eyes — simply asks one to suspend their disbelief. Giannini's writing style is full of redundancies and snippets of "facts" that are unsubstantiated. Nevertheless, the mystery of Byrd's travel beyond the poles remain unexplained to the satisfaction of anyone who has ever looked into his explorations. ...more
