Product Description:
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 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.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 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.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It's Fascinating
At first this feels like an ordinary "book of wonders" ... just another collection of wierd stuff and Fortean phenomena ... but after a while you start noticing common threads running through the articles as the Wilsons drift away from their research and expound an enticing occult / paranormal philosophy. Most of the stories in this book were ones I had read or heard about before, but this one really surprised me by exposing me to exciting new ideas. I wouldn't say I'm a believer, but it definitely changed my thinking. As an experience, this book is well worth your time.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 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.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 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
