  The author of Haunted New Orleans digs up NOLA's long and lawless history—from pirates and prostitutes to mobsters and murderers. 
   
   
    
  Since as early as the 1700s, New Orleans has been a city filled with sin and vice. Those first pioneering citizens of the Big Easy were thieves, vagabonds, and criminals of all kinds. By the time Louisiana fell under American control, New Orleans had become a city of debauchery and corruption camouflaged by decadence. It was also considered one of the country's most dangerous cities, with a reputation of crime and loose morals. Rampant gambling and prostitution were the norm in nineteenth-century New Orleans, and over one-third of today's French Quarter was considered a hotbed of sin. Tales in this volume include that of the notorious Axeman who plagued the streets of the Crescent City in the early 1900s and Kate Townsend, a prostitute who was murdered by her own lover, a man who later was awarded her inheritance. Troy Taylor takes a look back at New Orleans's early wicked days and historic crimes.

  The Top 5 Most Persuasive Alien...

  For centuries, humanity has looked to the stars with wonder and curiosity, speculating about the existence of life beyond our planet. While astronomers and scientists seek concrete evidence of extraterrestrial life, a different kind of proof has captured the public's imagination: alien abduction accounts. These extraordinary stories, often dismissed as fantasy or delusion, have sparked debates that straddle the line between science, psychology, and the unexplained. 
    
  Alien abduction accounts are far more than just eerie anecdotes. They tap into deep cultural and existential questions: Are we alone in the universe? What is the nature of human consciousness? And perhaps most intriguingly, how much of the unknown are we truly capable of understanding? From detailed descriptions of spacecraft and strange beings to recurring themes of medical examinations and missing time, these stories share uncanny similarities, even when reported by individuals with no connection to one another. 
    
  Yet, the credibility of these accounts remains fiercely debated. Skeptics point to psychological phenomena, such as sleep paralysis, hallucinations, or false memory creation, as plausible explanations. Believers, however, argue that the physical evidence, witness corroborations, and profound emotional impact on abductees cannot be so easily dismissed.

  Bridging Spirit and Science -...

  Martin K. Ettington

  Spirit and Science are viewed as opposing views. I have lived my life in the middle of this divide. Trained as an engineer and scientist, I was taught to trust logic, mathematics, and experimental proof.  
  Yet my personal experiences — from moments of prophecy to direct awareness of subtle energies — convinced me that there is more to reality than conventional science admits.  
  For years I tried to keep the two worlds separate: the rational and the mystical. But over time, the boundary dissolved. I realized that both perspectives describe the same universe from different vantage points.  
  My work, and this book in particular, is about restoring the unity that once existed between them. 
  The purpose of this book is not to replace science with mysticism, nor to reduce spiritual experience to chemistry or neurology. Rather, it aims to show that consciousness, energy, and matter are aspects of a single integrated system.

  The true crime story of a 1960 murder that rocked a tranquil Michigan vacation spot and the search for justice that followed. 
   
  When widow Frances Lacey was murdered in July 1960 on Mackinac Island, only a few meager clues were found by police, and the case soon turned cold. But more than sixty years later, will those same clues finally solve the mystery?  
   
  On July 24, 1960, the quaint charm and serenity of Mackinac, nestled between Michigan’s Upper and Lower Peninsulas, was shattered by Lacey’s brutal death. Despite a massive manhunt and thousands of pages of police reports, her killer was never caught.  
   
  Now, in Grim Paradise, true crime author Rod Sadler (Killing Women) delves into the secrets of one of Michigan's most perplexing murder cases. Offering an in-depth and suspenseful account of the long-standing mystery, he poses the question: Could advancements in DNA technology lead to the identity of the Mackinac Island murderer as it did in the case of the Golden State Killer?
