I have the whole set of 5 books. The author claims that he was given access to certain information only available to priests. It seems that the author repeats the same info thru all of the books. I also read a book from a guy named Wishar Spenle Cerve that was written in the 1930's (I think) that also mentions the author of the Mu books (James Churchward). It seems he made the front pages in some newspaper. In Cerve's book, he also talks about a certain demotic document found inside a an egyptian dude
's tomb. This document allegedly describes a story of a guy that was sailing near India and the boat sunk. The guy then finds this island where he stayss for 3 months and then returns to Egypt with some interesting knowledge. It doesn't reference the document, the name, or where it is kept. Basically, you're on your own. Cerve suggests that this island was Mu.
