Title: The Disappeared: The Stories of 35 Historical Disappearances from the Mary Celeste to Jimmy Hoffa
Description: London, United Kingdom, Quercus. 2006, First Edition/First Printing. (ISBN: 9781847242716) Hardcover. Book, A square solid tight clean unread unused copy. The eerie roll call of those who have disappeared mysteriously and have disappeared mysteriously and apparently without a trace sounds a troubling but strangely compulsive note along the main themes of human history. From the crew of the Mary Celeste to Lord Lucan, from Ambrose Bierce to Jimmy Hoffa, history is patterned with shadows left by people who have quite simply vanished. Setting aside those fevered explanations that attribute every disappearance to paranormal agency or alien abduction, these stories offer us both the frisson of uncertainty and the challenge of speculating, in an informed manner, as to the likely fate of the disappeared. Nice copy. THIS COPY IS IN MY POSSESSION AND WILL NORMALLY SHIP NEXT DAY. Fine/Fine.
