Forgotten Mysteries
by R. DeWitt MillerToday, as age-old certainties crumble in men’s hands, it is natural to ask, “What is the truth behind those strange, half-forgotten tales that seem forever recurring, those facts which, if substantiated, would change our conception of the universe?”Are there ghosts, sea serpents, messages from Mars? Have there been phantom armies? Was there a lost continent of Atlantis? Can men wander along the dimension of time? What of the tales that cluster around this thing called dying?Each of the 15 chapters in Forgotten Mysteries covers a different type of mysterious occurrence. For the first time the whole field of the enigmatical has been presented in one volume.“One of the world’s foremost authorities on psychic phenomena.”—United Press“…enormously readable…”—The Chicago Daily News“This book is in a class by itself.”—San Francisco Call Bulletin“…a fascinating book…”—Vincent Starrett, Chicago Tribune“Tales to keep you awake…Miller focuses the eye of the scientist upon the outre, evoking case histories rather than dungeons, facts rather than ghostly moans.”—Edwin Fadiman, Jr., Philadelphia Inquirer
