Summary: Nostradamus' Unpublished Prophecies
Comment: I thought that the Publisher's statment that Nostradamus was an Alien from another world (several times) was just ridiculous. All of his conclusions are subject to interpretation, and in my opinion missed the mark several times. I wonder who the other "reviewers" really are?!? I bought this book on their recommendation. I'm sorry I wasted my time and money!

Summary: RIGHT TO THE POINT -- EVERY THING YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT HIM
Comment: Years ago I went out and purchased about 6 or 8 books dealing with the prophecies of Nostradamus. A lot of them are pretty unreadable. Unless you are a history buff what happened in France or throughout Europe 3oo or 400 years ago is going to have very little meaning. Also, unless you know French you will have to plow through page after page of translations which - often -- will bring you no closer to making a determination about if the seer actually predicted a particular event or not. UNPUBLISHED PROPHECIES has two things going for it. It gets right to the point, pretty much dealing with the works of Nostradamus that have meaning in our modern every day lives. The editors have sorted everything out for the reader in a reasonable number of pages so you dont have to take a course in French. Furthermore, there are some predictions in this book that supposedly have never been published before. Additionally, I just obtained a recent printing of this book to find out that the publisher have added some material on the terrorist attack on America. In fact the sub title deals with this new threat and there is even a special update you can get by writing to the publisher.

Summary: A Sure Thing
Comment: There has been a resurgence of interest in Nostradamus in the wake of the tragic terrorist attacks on New York and Washington. Along with a widely circulated hoax prophecy that was quickly unmasked by astute students of the prophet, the authentic prophecy found in Century 6, Quatrain 97, seemed to uncannily predict the World Trade Center's destruction.
The skeptic's response to all such apparent fulfillments of prophecy is to argue that since the actual wording of the quatrain is so vague, it can be interpreted any number of ways. However, it is even less logical to assume that Nostradamus was working totally blind and that future events correspond to what he predicted simply by chance. It has been said that if you put a monkey in front of a typewriter, he will eventually type out the words of Shakespeare. But again, it simply isn't possible for Nostradamus to be as accurate as he is working from within a total vacuum, is it?
Which brings us to "Nostradamus' Unpublished Prophecies" by Arthur Crockett. Crockett opens with a crash course for the uninitiated on the life history of Nostradamus, beginning with his humble yet nearly supernatural birth in 16th Century France through his time as a medical doctor working with victims of the Black Plague. Beginners to the subject will enjoy reading about the early years when Nostradamus first became aware of his gift of prophecy and the fame he acheived in his own lifetime, including his eventual championing by the French royal court.
Next Crockett gives an interesting overview of some of the prophecies already assumed to be fulfilled, such as quatrains that seem to predict the rise and fall of Adolph Hitler and the end of the Cold War. The accuracy with which Nostradamus predicted so many future events that are now in our past is the best testimony one can make for him being the real thing.
From there, Crockett moves on to the heart of the book, the prophecies by Nostradamus that were omitted from the seer's official collection.
"The legend goes," Crockett writes, "that shortly before his death, Nostradamus penned a series of prophecies so startling that he never had them included in his published works, too afraid was he of the effect they might have. These predictions were circulated only to royalty and were thought destroyed for many years until they were uncovered in the basement of the house where Nostradamus died. They were sealed behind a wall which only recently was torn down to reinforce the old building which is now a landmark."
So we are given something new to ponder over and wonder about. Many of the unpublished prophecies have to do with the Second Coming of Christ and visitors from Outer Space as well as several appearances by the Virgin Mary.
Also included with the book is a two-page insert called "Nostradamus' Black Prophecies," one of which is a story in itself. Keeping in mind that the book was published in 1983, the insert contains a prophecy that declares, "In the year eighty plus nine, the vast East collapses." You may recall that it was in 1989 that the student revolt in China happened, followed by a bloody massacre and the complete breakdown of law and order in China that lasted for several weeks. It's just such moments that keep students of Nostradamus hooked.
In any case, I heartily recommend "Nostradamus' Unpublished Prophecies" to both the adept scholar and the newcomer to the prophet. Whatever lies ahead of us in the future may have already been seen and documented in the four-line poems of a man who spoke through time itself.
