Summary | About the Author | Contents | Excerpt | Ordering Information
"This is one of the most original books that I've read on the topic of Atlantis. My understanding is that the author worked for most of his career as a design engineer at the top aerospace companies such as Boeing and McDonnel-Douglas. His creativity and expertise really shine during the more non-fictional parts of the book, where fantasy, science fiction, and reality merge together. Every painting, design, and sketch was also hand draw by the author, making this a fascinating life's work. It's not Hemingway, but if you can look past the rough translation, you'll discover a very good book."

Atlantis Inspiration for the Future is a part fiction and part fact book. It starts with a hiking adventure, which was inspired by a real exploration trip the author had taken long ago as a teenager. He hiked on uncharted territory and walked on barren mountains, valleys, and rain forests. At night while sleeping in mountain caves, he encountered dreams of great personalities from the past including prophets and God.
During his return trip, while climbing through a barren mountain he got tired and sat on a rock for a short nap. It seemed that rock was an ancient concealed time machine which stimulated dreams to the past—including splendid Atlantis. The dreams started when he migrated as a child to Atlantis, where he grew in luxury, enjoying parties, trips, romance— experiencing all aspects of the Atlantis life. He later became an Engineer. Living in times that coincided with an extra-terrestrial’s visit to Atlantis, the natives asked the aliens to teach them their advanced sciences—and they did.
He awakened from his nap to find two monks who introduced themselves as members of a secret society — keepers of the ancient chamber of Atlantis. They invited him to walk with them to their headquarters. It was there they showed him the many wonders of the ancient civilization through video tapes that were used to teach advanced courses to the children of Atlantis. It seemed to him that he had learned more in one day with the monks than he had in his entire lifetime.
The monks continued to educate him on the city before taking him through a long tunnel that leads to the secret treasure chamber of Atlantis. As they arrived, the vault appeared as a huge cathedral surrounded by several floors of balconies. These balconies seemed to be a library, but they were holding places for the wonders of Atlantis, seven of them were prepared around the world by the people of Atlantis just days before the comet fell in the Atlantic Ocean sinking all islands of Atlantis. Buried chambers left as evidence of their past real existence.
After absorbing so much in one day, he was exhausted. The monks walked with him back to the place where they found him where he later awakened to reality. He then proceeded with his trip back to civilization.
Walter F. Laredo was born in Bolivia. As a young child, his relatives called him "Little da Vinci", because of his skills—mainly for drawing pictures or by modeling with clay.
When he was a teenager his father took him for a long hiking adventure of exploration, of some Bolivian uncharted territory. It was this trip that later inspired him to write the first part of this book.
After high school, he attended La Plata University in Argentina to study aeronautical engineering and at the same time got a job at the National Commission of Atomic Energy as a mechanical designer for components for an experimental nuclear reactor. He then traveled to the United States to finish his education.
After graduating as a mechanical engineer at UCLA in 1973, he worked in USA, at the Principal Aerospace Companies where he designed aircraft and rockets. He also worked as aircraft structural engineer at McDonnell Douglas and Rockwell. He then worked as an aircraft preliminary design engineer in product development with the advanced projects department of the Boeing Company. He was later employed as a consultant and contract engineer at Grumman and General Dynamics.
