Thomas Winship presents forty-one distinct arguments in support of the flat earth theory and the associated Zetetic astronomy. This book began life as a shorter pamphlet. It was only after significant popular interest that Mr. Winship decided to expand Zetetic Cosmogony into a lengthy, encompassing book. Drawing upon observations made by those working in science and the naval professions, Winship presents a series of points with the intention of verifying and proving that the earth is a flat plane rather than an oblate spheroid. Quoting dozens of distinct works and sources, the author is lively and passionate in advancing each of his points, voicing disdain for conventional astronomers as he goes. To some extent this book can be considered a summation of the Flat Earth Society's years of work to convince the world's scientific community and public. We encounter explanations of phenomena such as circumnavigation, oddities observed by sailors, the motions of the sun, moon and stars and even the construction of long-distance railways. The appendices include a number of testimonials, short essays plus poetry written by advocates of the flat earth theory.

2017 Reprint of 1899 Second Edition. Modern flat Earth hypotheses originated with the English writer Samuel Rowbotham (1816-1884). Based on conclusions derived from the Bedford Level experiment, Rowbotham published Zetetic Astronomy. He later expanded into a book Earth Not a Globe, proposing the Earth is a flat disc centered at the North Pole and bounded along its southern edge by a wall of ice, Antarctica, with the Sun and Moon 3,000 miles and the "cosmos" 3,100 miles above Earth. He also published a leaflet titled "The Inconsistency of Modern Astronomy and its Opposition to the Scriptures!!," which argued that the Bible, alongside our senses, supported the idea that the earth was flat and immovable and this essential truth should not be set aside for a system based solely on human conjecture. Rowbotham and followers like T. Winship [Rectangle] gained attention in debates with leading scientists such as Alfred Russel Wallace. Rowbotham created a Zetetic Society in England and New York, shipping over a thousand copies of Zetetic Astronomy.

Planetary Delusion …The Falling Away By: Steve Barrett Using the Authorized Bible, Steve Barrett explores the topic of the true age and shape of the earth. Barrett argues that the “heliocentric lie” has been the foundation for many deceiving theologies. This “planetary delusion,” has been a vehement force of indoctrination that could be the most deceptive way to introduce an intergalactic savior with malicious intent. Planetary Delusion …The Falling Away describes the prevalence of end-times deception and illustrates the importance of the biblical description of earth and how it may be related to the falling away. While primarily an eschatological study, it was written with both the Christian and non-believer in mind. Readers willing to have an open mind will be provoked to study the Bible and dig deeper to discover the truth for themselves.
