| Synopsis: |
Organized geographically, Unnatural Phenomena: A Guide to the Bizarre Wonders of North America explores the history of bizarre natural phenomena in all 50 states. Showers of insects, pillars of fire. Cattle mutilations. Hollywood horror films have nothing on the bizarre, freaky, and downright odd phenomena of nature chronicled in Unnatural Phenomena: A Guide to the Bizarre Wonders of North America. Warning: this encyclopedia causes goosebumps, spine shivers, and cold sweats. Can the sky quake? Can sand play music? Have UFOs been sighted in your town? Unnatural Phenomena: A Guide to the Mysterles of North America crosses the centuries and travels America to chronicle the strangest natural phenomena, the most bizarre scientific findings, and events from history that defy rational explanation. Conveniently organized by region, state, and locality, this one-volume, illustrated encyclopedia maps a landscape straight out of The Twilight Zone.From apparitions in the sky to inhuman skeletons from the earthand everything in betweenstrange phenomena expert Jerome Clark, author of ABC-CLIO's Extraordinary Encounters: An Encyclopedia of Extraterrestrials and Otherworldly Beings, sifts through the legends, the hoaxes, and the science. Authoritatively researched, coolly considered, the entries in Unnatural Phenomena will expand the most skeptical reader's sense of the possible. The truth is out there...the evidence is in here. |
