Noah's "Hill of Salvation" has now been found You can examine it for yourself using modern satellite imagery This book presents the best evidence to date as to the precise location where Noah's ark came to rest, which many throughout history have unsuccessfully attempted to identify in various, remote locations throughout the world. While every detail in the true story of Noah has yet to be determined, the gaps that remain have grown more and more narrow with each new archaeological discovery related to the subject. This book presents those that are presently known, in addition to providing compelling new evidence for where Noah's ark came to rest following the Great Flood of the Bible. What remains is still a matter open for speculation and debate. Those gaps can be filled with the plausible or the implausible, the miraculous or the mundane. The author has chosen to fill them with what is probable, in light of the context and what has actually been discovered from the most recent scientific studies of ancient Mesopotamia. The following editorial review by the U.S. Review of Books is posted at http: //www.theusreview.com/reviews/True-Barger.html: "The ark was massive by any standard, covering an area roughly the size of a football field and 60 feet from top to bottom." "The True Story of Noah" explores the origins of this well known biblical story from a unique angle. Using related literature and information provided, Barger probes further to understand the likeliest resting spot of the ark. In the process, he provides a deluge of enriching historical information that revolves around the life of Noah and the origins of man. Barger's discourse is intriguing and would particularly spark engaging conversation in a college humanities lecture... references to many familiar figures from creation myths and stories, such as The Epic of Gilgamesh, will keep the reader involved. Nevertheless, it is imperative to understand that this book is just as much about the story of how Noah came to be as it is about the final resting spot of the ark. Ultimately, the extensively detailed journey from what is essentially the beginning of mankind to the birth of Noah is necessary to understand the direction of Noah's life and why he was perceived to be made from the likeness of the gods. Before delving into Noah's life, the author takes readers on an imaginary journey beginning with the search for the first man, Adam, in 5500 B.C. This first scene shows mankind at its most primitive and has the feel of the Congo jungle scenes in Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness. Later in the journey, yet prior to Noah's existence, readers will encounter the city of Eridu, the Enki priests and temples, and the biblical figures that form Noah's heritage... For serious readers of the humanities who have a passion for ancient, biblical history and how it came to be, Barger's story is a worthwhile read. --Mihir Shah
