  I have researched and written over 150 books on strange and mysterious phenomena. Some of these books are based on my own experiences and most topics are based on my research. My fascination with strange things has become a major passion in my life.This book includes over sixty true stories on many different subjects to provide a lot of food for thought on these topics.These stories cover Bigfoot, Aliens & UFOs, Time and Dimensional travel stories, survival stories, ancient civilizations, Out Of Place Artifacts, Dragons, Giant Snakes, the Paranormal, Longevity, Outer Space, Spiritual Experiences, Impossible Ruins, and much more.Graduated from Engineering School and also had many paranormal experiences from learning meditation and other practices. My goal is to write about weird topics from an analytical perspective.When you finish this volume maybe you will see my point of view which is that as much as we think we know about this world and the Universe, there are still many mysteries and strange things out there.

  William McKinley: The Life and...

  Although he is often overlooked in American history today, few presidents marked a turning point for the country quite like William McKinley. As the last president to have served in the Civil War, he represented the end of an era, while at the same time his pro-business policies set in motion the Progressive Era, a period almost universally associated with Theodore Roosevelt. 
  Of course, the reason that period is aligned with Roosevelt is because McKinley had the unfortunate distinction of being one of only four presidents to be assassinated. In September 1901, the city of Buffalo was full of celebration. The Pan-American Exposition was ongoing, and it brought notable figures to northern New York, including President McKinley, who had been reelected less than a year earlier. But also in Buffalo was Leon Czolgosz, a young man who had turned to anarchy years earlier after losing his job, Embracing his philosophy wholeheartedly, Czolgosz believed it was his mission to take down a powerful leader he considered oppressive, and McKinley’s attendance gave him the chance. 
  President James Garfield had been assassinated just 20 years earlier, but McKinley didn’t worry about presidential security or his own safety, and that was the case in Buffalo. McKinley’s insistence on greeting the public and shaking hands allowed Czolgosz to walk up to him on September 6, 1901 at a public reception in the Temple of Music on the expo grounds and shoot him point blank, with one bullet grazing the president and another lodging in his abdomen. In the aftermath of the shooting, as Czolgosz was beaten and seized by the crowd, he uttered, "I done my duty." For his part, McKinley said, “He didn't know, poor fellow, what he was doing. He couldn't have known."

  A stunning musical biography of Stevie Nicks that paints a portrait of an artist, not a caricature of a superstar. 
   
   
   
  Reflective and expansive, Mirror in the Sky situates Stevie Nicks as one of the finest songwriters of the twentieth century. 
   
   
   
  This biography from distinguished music historian Simon Morrison examines Nicks as a singer and songwriter before and beyond her career with Fleetwood Mac, from the Arizona landscape of her childhood to the strobe-lit Night of 1000 Stevies celebrations. 
   
   
   
  The book uniquely: 
   
   
   
  ● Analyzes Nicks's craft—the grain of her voice, the poetry of her lyrics, the melodic and harmonic syntax of her songs. 
   
   
   
  ● Identifies the American folk and country influences on her musical imagination that place her within a distinctly American tradition of women songwriters. 
   
   
   
  ● Draws from oral histories and surprising archival discoveries to connect Nicks's story to those of California's above- and underground music industries, innovations in recording technology, and gendered restrictions.
