Witnesses the world over claim to see spirits, UFOs, Sasquatch, and other phenomena that are not supposed to exist. Most cannot believe their eyes, yet some of these observers have also detected evidence of a more ephemeral nature--odors abound, in particular the stench of brimstone.
In the first book of its kind, Joshua Cutchin, author of the highly praised A Trojan Feast, documents these uncommon scents and poses a startling possibility... that smell is a sense ripe for deception.
We trust our eyes and ears, but should we trust our noses?
Описание: Folklore has always warned of hidden dangers lurking in the shadows, otherworldly beings who seek to steal that which parents hold most dear. Joshua Cutchin traces this primal concern from the worldwide tales of fairies, to Sasquatch kidnappings, alien abductions, and mysterious disappearances in national parks.
Folklore has always warned of hidden dangers lurking in the shadows, otherworldly beings who seek to steal that which parents hold most dear. In the first book dedicated solely to the subject, Joshua Cutchin traces this primal concern from antiquity to the modern era--beginning with worldwide tales of faeries, changelings, spirits, demons, and monsters, before examining more contemporary phenomena such as Sasquatch kidnappings, alien abductions, and mysterious disappearances in national parks. Folklore, medicine, science, and spirituality come together for a uniquely scholarly perspective on the thieves in the night.
"Joshua Cutchin's Thieves in the Night deserves a place on your bookshelf next to Keith Thompson's Angels and Aliens and Jacques Vallee's Passport to Magonia--a truly fascinating and darkly disturbing investigation into the predatory nature of fairies, aliens, and all the shadowy beings that live among us, lurking just outside our view." -- Richard Hatem, screenwriter of The Mothman Prophecies
"Joshua Cutchin has written a new masterwork. Fairy lore might seem quaint and outdated, but these fables are vital and alive. This is a magical book, and after reading it, you will walk anew in an enchanted world." -- Mike Clelland, author of The Messengers: Owls, Synchronicity and the UFO Abductee

Описание: River bottoms, rock quarries, sinkholes, and caves from Texas to South Carolina are treasure chests of Ice Age fossils. Scientists and amateur collectors have uncovered bones and teeth of extinct giants such as mastodons, mammoths, giant ground sloths, and saber-toothed cats. The fossils provide important clues that help scientists piece together a story of what life was like more than 10,000 years ago.
