Dr. Raymond Bernard was a pseudonym, and his bizarre book was a 60s classic of weird UFO literature. Said the original back cover copy for the book: Revealed! The Underground World of Supermen Discovered Under the North Pole! Can you explain the following? Why does one find tropical seeds, plants and trees floating in the fresh water of icebergs? Why do millions of tropical birds and animals go farther north in the wintertime? If it is not hollow and warm inside the Earth at the Poles, then why does colored pollen color the Earth for thousands of miles? Why is it warmer at the Poles than 600 to 1000 miles away from them? Why does the north wind in the Arctic get warmer as one sails north beyond 70° latitude? On top of all of, Admiral Byrd supposed made several journeys inside the earth by traveling through the holes in the poles. Could there be anything to Bernard s bizarre claims? Chapters include: UFOs and Governmental Secrecy; Admiral Byrd s Epoch-Making Discovery; The Hollow Earth; William Reed s Book, Phantom of the Poles ; Marshall B. Gardner s Book, A Journey to the Earth s Interior ; Was the North Pole Really Discovered?; The Origin of the Eskimos; The Subterranean Origin of the Flying Saucers; Description of a Theoretical Aerial Expedition into the Polar Opening Leading to the Hollow Interior of the Earth; Agharta, The subterranean World; Flying Saucers, Propulsion and Relativity; more.

if you ignore the claims of a civilization living in the interior of the Earth (we can argue all day on that one, can't we?) and just look at the FACTS -

if you put clothes in your washer, liquid in your blender, watch the water in you stool when you flush it, observe what happens in any mundane centrifuge - all of the contents will be thrown to the sides of the container, leaving a central cavity (for your stool, you have to flush to achieve it).
With your clothes washer, the items that were packed so tightly you could not add anything else at the start remain plastered along the sides (you will have to pull them off, and they will have little dots), greatly reduced n mass.
Is it really so far-fetched to think that the great whirling ball of Magma that is our planet would not do the same thing on the inside? And that with time a crust would form inside as it has outside?

Scientifically, there is no reason why our planet could not be hollow.
There is also no reason there would not be two polar openings - again you see the same thing n the blender and washer - hole above, hole below. We also see the same thing in our atmosphere where we have an upper and lower hole in the spinning mass near the poles (yes, I know that is not the excuse we are using today, but it makes far more sense than something from down-below can get past the introversion layer of the atmosphere, doesn't it?)
It it crusted, and there is an entrance, then why could life NOT have reached the interior?
More advanced.... well, now, that's a whole 'nother philosophical debate, isn't it? ( )

I have Reviewed my 1969 Edition (See) - This is a part of my rare book collection. After I first read it and was enthralled by the possibility of a hallow Earth. Today there is so much controversy about the book and it's author I often think of the Flat Earth days and Just maybe, Just maybe it's true. ( )

This is what appears to be a serious effort to convince the reader that there is a hollow world inside ours, with twin openings at the poles, and that this is the source for all flying saucer sightings. It is also being hushed up by the government. As near as I can tell, these people are serious. I keep this book as a reminder of the extent to which people can go to support their own delusions. Now nothing can surprise me. I hope. ( )

Dedicated to the Future Explorers of the New World that exists beyond North and South Poles in the hollow interior of the Earth. Who will repeat Admiral Byrd's historic flight for 1,700 miles beyond the North Pole and that of his Expedition for 2,300 miles beyond the South Pole, entering an unknown territory not shown on any map, covering an immense land area whose total size is larger than North America, consisting of forests, mountains, lakes, vegetation and animal life. The aviator who will be the first to reach this New Territory unknown until Admiral Byrd first discovered it, will go down in history as a new Columbus, for while Columbus discover a new continent, he will discover a New World.

Admiral Byrd's Epoch-making Discovery
Foreword: It is the purpose for this book to present scientific evidence to prove that the Earth, rather than being a solid sphere with a fiery center of molten metal, as generally supposed, is really hollow, with openings at its poles.
The late Frank Edwards, courageously outspoken radio and television commentator, was quoted as saying "Orders of secrecy (re UFOs) come from the top.
