This book divides its chapters into two groupings: the Historical Mysteries and the Mystical Mysteries. Section one deals with the origins of the American Indian, artifacts, megaliths, totems, and lost colonies. Section two deals with ritual ceremonies such as the shaking tent, medicine man magic, secrets of the shamans, and other interesting topics. This volume sheds new light on the motivations of Native Americans when faced with a deluge of European settlers. If you love ancient American history, this volume is a must have.  Vincent H.

TRUE ACCOUNTS OF PSYCHIC DETECTIVES AND PSYCHIC CRIMES FROM THE PAGES OF THE WORLD'S LEADING MAGAZINE OF THE PARANORMAL Increasingly, when police are baffled by unsolvable crimes, they turn to psychics of proven ability for assistance. Working with clues provided by those with extraordinary paranormal gifts, officers have gone on to apprehend the guilty and, in many cases, free the wrongly accused. Sometimes a crime was committed by psychic or paranormal means, baffling the most seasoned detectives—in which case paranormal means may be the only way of bringing the criminal to justice. Fate is the longest-running and most widely-respected magazine devoted to the paranormal. During its 66 years as the leading publication in its field, Fate has published expert opinions and personal experiences relating to UFOs, psychic abilities, ghosts and hauntings, cryptozoology, alternative medicine, divination methods, belief in the survival of personality after death, predictive dreams, telepathic communication, and other paranormal topics. Many of these challenge our very concept of reality, suggesting at the very least that this world is a far stranger place than most of us suspect. For this volume of our Best of Fate series, the editors of the magazine open their files to examine true accounts of crimes—often acts of murderous violence—both perpetrated and solved by paranormal means. Here, gathered from the over seven hundred issues of Fate, are some of the most impressive instances of psychic crime-solving and psychic crimes, offering hours of fascinating reading for anyone interested in the strange, the paranormal or the occult.Special introductory price $8.99 (Amazon only) normally $12.99

Here is a collection of unusual tales that discloses the bravery, devotion, genius, wizardry, and precognition of animals and their telepathic communication and rapport with man. The authors' thesis is that love develops a subconscious bond between minds, which recognizes no division between the human, animal, and vegetable realms.Here we find wonderful stories about pets who earn money because of their ability to count, talk, or dance, as well as tales of animals exhibiting ESP - helping people escape danger or even making accurate bets on horse races. Cases of animals traveling across the country to be reunited with their families (after being separated) are not uncommon. We find that pigeons can be used to detect flaws in electronic parts, baboons can herd sheep and operate railroad signals, and dogs can find booby traps and other hazards. As the narrative evolves, the link between human and animal becomes undeniable, such as in the case of the flock of migrating geese who regularly used a conservationist's land as a refuge - but who decided to leave the day he died.The book also discusses the many pet blessed with bio-clocks, including the cat who woke her mistress up each day at the same time, and could even adjust to changes brought on by daylight savings time. Finally, there is a section dealing with the experiments of Cleve Backster, indicating that even plants have feelings and react to kindness and cruelty.The authors share an avid interest in the occult and the unknown. They are longstanding members of the International Fortean Society and the Society For the Investigation of the Unexplained.
