History
In her book The World Before (1976) Montgomery presented a pseudohistoric account of the earth which involved the lost continents of Mu and Atlantis. The book was written through automatic writing, Montgomery claimed the information was given to her by her spirit guides.
Montgomery held a number of unorthodox ideas. She had claimed humans had existed with dinosaurs on earth for millions of years. She had claimed the first humans were 12 feet tall giants and had produced offspring with large animals. She wrote that the “original sin was co-habiting with animals” but Later God introduced a law so kinds can only produce after their kind and that man could no longer procreate with "beasts, birds and fish". She claimed the offspring of the early humans and animals on earth were "half human forms" which had existed for millions of years such as Centaurs, satyrs and nymphs.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The custard is setting; meanwhile
I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“If man is reduced to being nothing but a character in history, he has no other choice but to subside into the sound and fury of a completely irrational history or to endow history with the form of human reason.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
