Strange But True - Mysterious & Bizarre People

Description: "Strange But True - Mysterious & Bizarre People" by Thomas Slemen - Hardcover w/Dustjacket - Published in 1999 by Barbes & Noble - 394 pages - book is in NEAR MINT condition; DJ is very good. Everyone relishes a good "strange but true" story now and again, and this book has 62 of them! These are stories of phenomena and occurrences that have completely defied conventional explanation--events that have baffled scientists, stymied detectives, and intrigued ordinary mortals for hundreds of years. Some of the stories are legendary, some have taken place in our own lifetime. Is it absolutely certain that Joan of Arc died at the stake? Did the Master of Macabre, Edgar Allan Poe, murder the "Cigar Girl"? Was Tchaikovsky a murder victim? Did Union soldiers kill John Wilkes Booth in 1865, or did he die 38 years later in a lodging house in Baltimore? Was martial arts superstar Bruce Lee murdered? Did Atlantis really exist? These mysteries and many more are explored in this entertaining read. There is a little edge wrinkling on the DJ (not to an extent as to be visible in the scan), but this book is still in very nice condition. No collection of books on strange phenomena is complete without this one. See the scan for graphics on the cover. You can try to buy this book for less money from one of those eBay booksellers with hundreds, if not, thousands of negatives (you know the ones I refer to) and be lucky if the book is delivered in the stated condition (if you even get it at all), or you can buy it from me and be assured of receiving a high quality item (true to the stated condition) and a prompt delivery. You won't be disappointed. All previous buyers of my books on strange phenomena have been completely satisfied. I have others available; please check my listings. The book will be sent via Media mail shipping in the USA. I will combine shipping to reduce charges for multiple items.
