The book is an exploration of the idea that ancient civilizations, including the Babylonians, Egyptians, and Hindus, had knowledge of a lost continent, which he called "Atlantis."Warren was a Christian missionary and scholar who drew on his knowledge of ancient languages and cultures to support his theory. He argued that there was evidence of a great flood that had destroyed Atlantis, and that remnants of this civilization could be found in various ancient texts and artifacts.Warren believed that the knowledge of this lost continent had been passed down through the ages, and that it had influenced various cultures around the world. He argued that the similarities between the myths and legends of different cultures were evidence of a common origin and shared knowledge.The book was influential in its time and helped to popularize the idea of a lost continent and the influence of ancient civilizations on modern culture. However, many of Warren's claims have been dismissed by modern scholars, and the idea of Atlantis as a real place remains a topic of debate and speculation.Despite this, "Paradise Found" remains an important historical document in the study of ancient civilizations and their influence on modern culture. It is a fascinating read for those interested in the history of mythology and the origins of human knowledge.
