Ancient Chinese account of the Grand Canyon, or course of the Colorado

A curious blend of myth and early 20th‑century speculation, this work dives into the strange parallels drawn between ancient Chinese cosmology and the vast lands of the Americas. The author examines legendary Chinese descriptions of “ten suns” and “mulberry trees” and shows how those images have been matched to the grand canyons, deserts, and coastlines of North America, suggesting a surprisingly detailed ancient awareness of distant continents.

Interwoven with excerpts from Chinese chronicles, Mexican folklore, and contemporary explorer reports, the narrative balances scholarly footnotes with lively commentary. Readers are invited to follow the author's trail of thought as he maps celestial phenomena onto real geography, questioning how early travelers interpreted the world’s most dramatic landscapes. The book offers a thought‑provoking glimpse into a time when legends and emerging science collided, leaving modern listeners to wonder where fact ends and imagination begins.
