Description

Still unsolved; still baffling; still claiming new victims. Here are the untold stories. A pilot reports a strange haze enveloping his plane; then disappears; eleven hours after fuel starvation; as if calling from a void; he is heard 600 miles away. He requests permission to land; then vanishes forever. A freighter steaming over placid seas disappears without a trace. A pleasure yacht ghosts past without a soul on board. A pilot calls for help because a "weird object" is harassing his plane. A jet collides with an "unknown" and is never found. . . . Into the Bermuda Triangle is the first comprehensive examination of these baffling disappearances in more than a generation. Drawing on official reports from the NTSB and other investigative agencies as well as interviews with scientists; theorists; and survivors; leading authority Gian Quasar not only sets the record straight on previously examined cases; he also offers a bulging file of new cases; the collective results of his twelve-year investigation. In meticulous detail this unflinching account: Documents confirmed disappearances of airplanes and ships Gathers new testimony and reexamines old interviews from eyewitnesses and survivors Explores possible explanations ranging from zero-point energy to magnetic vortices Challenges our assumptions with the sheer weight of accumulated evidence In this age of technological and scientific discovery; there are still mysteries that transcend understanding. The Bermuda Triangle is one. "The best book I've ever read on this important subject."―Andrew Griffin; The Town Talk

Printed on heavy paper in a sumptuous binding.10 of 10 people found the following review helpful. Fine facsimileBy J. TabileI really am grateful I bought this facsimile of the Holkham Bible. This very affordable copy lets the average man enjoy the famed picture Bible right at the very comfort of his own home. The pages resemble the vellum used in the original and the color reproduction is no less inferior. Added to it the commentaries are erudite and excellent and will guide you to the picture Bible page by page explaining what was happening and will give you some historical background to the manners; dresses and architecture of that time when the manuscript was created. You can even figure it out; according to the author of the commentary; the name of the creator of this manuscript. His name was John Fifthhide! I didn't mean to spoil the fun....
