In 2006 Charlotte Harris Rees
published an abbreviated edition of her fathers The
Asiatic Fathers of America. Through her painstaking
research she went on to publish two more books of her own -
Secret Maps of the Ancient World and now Chinese Sailed
to America Before Columbus: More Secrets from the Dr. Hendon
M. Harris, Jr. Map Collection. Both of these books are the
results of much more evidence that was gathered by the author
in her extensive research and tireless scholarly pursuit.
These books are recommended reading for all who are interested
in revisiting world history in a new light.

Is there evidence
that ancient America was discovered
and colonized long before
Christopher Columbus?
|
|
In 1972 the late Dr.
Hendon M. Harris, Jr. made a startling discovery. While
searching for Chinese collectibles he came across an ancient
Asian map book containing a world map showing a land mass
labeled "Fu Sang" to the east of China, land that we
today call America.

After years of research
and his discovery of the existence of twenty-nine other
supporting maps, Dr. Harris published a 796 page book titled
The
Asiatic Fathers of America. That book has long been out of
print and for years after Dr. Harris' death the map collection
just lay in a box under his son's bed.
In 2003, with the
sudden world-wide interest in this topic, the family took the
maps to the Library of Congress. For three years the maps were
there while being studied.
On May 16, 2005 Dr. Harris' daughter, Charlotte Harris Rees,
gave a speech at the Library of Congress about the early
arrival of Chinese to America (CLICK
HERE for a
full transcript). Now Mrs. Rees is presenting this condensed, easy
reading version of Dr. Harris' original text.
Recent research on DNA
and on the method of the Indians arrival to America support
what Dr. Harris taught - Chinese came early and they came by
sea.
This abridged version
of Dr. Harris' book, The Asiatic Fathers of America,
contains several never before released pictures of the Harris
map collection. The book also contains a brief biography about
Dr. Harris' unusual life written by his daughter Charlotte.

Harris, a third generation missionary, was
born in Kaifeng, China to American parents. He learned both Chinese
and English at a very early age. He was familiar with the Chinese classics
which down through the centuries discussed Fu Sang in detail.
Most Chinese today believe that Fu Sang was just myth, but was
it? Harris' introductions to the maps, Chinese classics, and
the similarities of American Indians to Chinese give new
insights to this topic.
