The Unidentified

Mythical Monsters, Alien Encounters, and Our Obsession with the Unexplained

Colin Dickey

Explore the world of unexplained phenomena with America's favorite cultural historian. From aliens to flat earth to the Loch Ness monster, Colin Dickey takes readers on a tour of America's wildest fringe beliefs and investigates why we continue to invent and reinvent them. With curiosity and insight, The Unidentified shows that seeking meaning in a world stripped of wonder is a timeless pursuit. A wry and brilliant analysis that is eminently readable.
