Used; Good Hans Schindler Bellamy appears to be one of the pseudonyms of Rudolf Elmayer von Vestenbrugg. Born in Pola (Pula), then in Austria-Hungary in 1888. He had a varied and not well documented past. During the 1930s he became a leading proponent of the now generally discredited theories of the Austrian cosmologist, Hans Hoerbiger, whose ideas were officially adopted during the Third Reich. After the war Bellamy continued to write on this topic in English and German, much of his work centring on the ruins of Tiahuanaco in Bolivia. Hardback.
