I need books about The Lost City of Atlantis?

Question

I need books and large size maps pertaining to what "The Lost City of Atlantis" looks like. Websites are most appreciated. Seriously resposes ONLY;)

Answer 1

Atlantis was first mentioned in two dialogues by Plato - "Timaeus" and "Critias". That should be your starting point.

This website has his key points:

Also check out wikipedia; it has a map on it from 1669:

Answer 2

I read a book in high school by Taylor Caldwell called "Romance of Atlantis."

Taylor (female) wrote it when she was 13 years old. She had a dream about Atlantis and she wrote a book based on her dream. I'm not sure where you can get it -- I just checked Amazon and they said it was out-of-stock.

It's a good book, though. It really makes the place come alive.
