STRANGELY ENOUGH

Where Louis C. Jones' Things That Go Bump In The Night (Hill & Wang, P.205) confined itself to New York State folklore in the ghost story field, this wanders the world over for its collection of almost 100 anecdotes of the mysterious, primarily but with some side steps into straight adventure and odd bits of information. Vanishings, lost continents, mysteries, with and without logical explanations, dreams that are repeated in true life, buried and lost treasure, UFO's, hauntings and forewarnings -- come from old diaries, family and town histories, and contributions to the editor's column, Adventure Today. There is no particular organization to the material; each tale is handled separately with its own title; the whole offers pick-up, part-time reading, for that audience whose choice in chills is insatiable.
