Still unsolved, still baffling, still claiming new victims. Here are the untold stories.
A pilot reports a strange haze enveloping his plane, then disappears; eleven hours after fuel starvation, as if calling from a void, he is heard 600 miles away. He requests permission to land, then vanishes forever. A freighter steaming over placid seas disappears without a trace. A pleasure yacht ghosts past without a soul on board. A pilot calls for help because a "weird object" is harassing his plane. A jet collides with an "unknown" and is never found. . . .
Into the Bermuda Triangle is the first comprehensive examination of these baffling disappearances in more than a generation. Drawing on official reports from the NTSB and other investigative agencies as well as interviews with scientists, theorists, and survivors, leading authority Gian Quasar not only sets the record straight on previously examined cases, he also offers a bulging file of new cases, the collective results of his twelve-year investigation. In meticulous detail this unflinching account:
In this age of technological and scientific discovery, there are still mysteries that transcend understanding. The Bermuda Triangle is one.
"The best book I've ever read on this important subject."—Andrew Griffin, The Town Talk

The authors writes with a flow that is easy to read. He supports his theories with good evidence; the most fascinating being the oral accounts given by people who have nearly been lost in the Triangle but have survived to tell the tale.
The book has lots of good b & w photos - some of the ships and planes which have disappeared, some of very interesting magnetic phenomenon and also some of the strange mists and fogs over the Bermuda area.
I kept thinking it couldn't get more interesting, but it did! Like delving into a yummy chocolate gateaux and finding more and more delightful layers as you go.
The author covers diverse topics such as magnetic forces, physics, ufo's, geological events, time-travel and lost civilizations, and yet explains things clearly and gives credible theories as to why disappearances occur in the triangle.
And yet at the end, in his summing up, I felt the author left it up to the reader to make up their own mind as to the cause of the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle!
