John Michell's The View Over Atlantis, Sago Press, 1969, is a primary practitioner text, not a scholarly one. Its strength is that it is the specific book that took Watkins's archaeological ley lines and reinterpreted them as lines of earth energy, the origin point of that later, much more widely known claim. Its limit is that the reinterpretation itself has no independent evidentiary support and is not accepted by archaeology; the atlas cites this book for what the claim says and where it began, not as evidence the energy exists.
