Book Overview

An expert examination of the most perplexing and still unexplained mysteries in more than two thousand years of human history. From Atlantis, the Bermuda Triangle, and Bigfoot to Tunguska, vampires, and zombies, the most fascinating subjects previously featured in Colin Wilson's popular Unsolved Mysteries Past and Present, The Encyclopedia of Unsolved Mysteries, and The Unexplained now appear along with new, equally mystifying material in one tremendous revised and updated volume. In it, Wilson shares his expert research and investigation into seventy-five of the world's most enduring mysteries, among them crop circles and crystal skulls, monsters and meteors, pyramids and poltergeists, the Hope Diamond and the Holy Shroud of Turin.

Riveting and fun to read

This book is so engrossing if you interest history, the paranormal, and various oddities. Almost every subject discussed was very interesting and I learned a lot from it. The author has a great way of looking at things others may dismiss as outlandish with a rational and open mind. Loved it!

classic

Anyone interested in weird, paranormal, unsolved, etc., stuff will find much to enjoy and like about this book. There is stuff like Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, Kaspar Hauser, Atlantis, and the Bermuda Triangle in it as well as stuff I had never heard of such as Junius, the devil's footprints, and the Oera Linda book. You will learn a lot from it. I loved it and am glad I got it.

Wonderful!

Very well written. Has accounts of the more well-known mysteries but has an equal number of lesser known ones also. Definitely a keeper.

Colin And Damon Willson

In the second book it is written that a place called Medvedja is near Belgrade/Serbia/.It is in Serbia,but it is not near Belgrade.It is on the Morava river and that information is also written-that is correct.But Belgrade is far away from Medvedja and the Morava river.That is a bit confusing.By the way,the book is exelent

Unsolved mysteries for the "pros"...

What makes this book by Colin Wilson pleasantly unpredictable is that it contains far more "unsolved mysteries" than the "usual" and expected `Bermuda triangle`, ÙFOs`, `Bigfoot`and so on. Sure enough it contains entries about those phenomena, but it goes deeper than these and explores stories such as those of Fulcanelli or Junius (both brilliant and yet unknown stories), a more detailed account on the -possibly- false identity...
