Book Synopsis Ohio's Frogmen and Melon Heads by : George Dudding
Download or read book Ohio's Frogmen and Melon Heads written by George Dudding and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, a whole slew of weird monsters have crawled out of the cracks in the Ohio River Basin. In 1955, and then again in 1972, strange creatures crawled from the water onto the banks of the Little Miami River at Loveland, Ohio. Based on witness descriptions, those creatures became known as the Loveland Frogmen. Were they amphibians, reptiles, or extraterrestrials? No one knows to this day. In this book, the author ventures from Frogmen to Melon Heads as he explores the legend of some creepy critters that dwell in the forests of Northern Ohio, on up into Michigan, and in the New England State of Connecticut. Were they escapees from a mental asylum, victims of an unfortunate medical condition, or the product of ghastly experiments carried out by a man that called himself a doctor?

Download or read book Carpe Librum written by P. A. Thaddeus and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-02-10 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1990s, the rural town of Cape Cove, Indiana, is the average heartland community with a small industrial area and a good portion of farmland surrounding the town proper. It’s a quiet place, populated by friendly neighbors who know each other and each other’s business. People in this small town have a way of finding their own enjoyment, and it’s usually on “the up and up.” The peace can’t last forever, though. A few kids unsatisfied with the boring diversions of Cape Cove deviate from the everyday and discover that their quaint little town hides its fair share of dark secrets. Very few had an inkling of this until the summer of 1997 when a mysterious book called the Liber Malificous arrives in town and shines light on secrets that should have remained hidden. For fans of Harry Potter and Stranger Things, follow a close-knit group of friends as they encounter characters from fantasy and horror in small-town Indiana ... and nobody has a cell phone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large, black, prehistoric serpent that makes its home in Lake Erie. A titanic hairy humanoid with glowing orange eyes who spies on any teenagers brave enough to park near its lovers' lane home. A giant owl the size of a tree so adept at camouflage it can practically disappear. A nocturnal race of tiny, melon-headed feral humans who roam the woods looking for victims to feast on. These are but some of the creatures of cryptozoology, folklore and urban legend that readers will meet in the pages of Monsters of Ohio, the first book of its kind to completely chronicle the state's population of mystery animals and the stories told about them. In addition to thirteen Buckeye State monsters-from infamous ones like The Lake Erie Monster, The Loveland Frogs and The Grassman, to lesser-known local legends like The Crosswick Monster, Bighoot and The Defiance Wolfman-the book also includes a parade of mysterious creatures that were only sighted once before disappearing...if, of course, they were ever really there at all. J.C. Raphael was born in Ashtabula, Ohio. He earned a bachelor's degree in English from Gannon University in Erie, Pennsylvania. He began freelance writing at age 17 with a film review of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein for The Plain Dealer, and has continued writing reviews of stuff ever since. He worked as a staff writer for a small suburban newspaper and as a writer and editor for a small, independent altweekly in Columbus, Ohio. He now works as a public library clerk and freelance writer. He lives in Mentor, Ohio.

Book Synopsis Black Swan Green by : David Mitchell
Download or read book Black Swan Green written by David Mitchell and published by Random House. This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the New York Times bestselling author of The Bone Clocks and Cloud Atlas | Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize Selected by Time as One of the Ten Best Books of the Year | A New York Times Notable Book | Named One of the Best Books of the Year by The Washington Post Book World, The Christian Science Monitor, Rocky Mountain News, and Kirkus Reviews | A Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist | Winner of the ALA Alex Award | Finalist for the Costa Novel Award From award-winning writer David Mitchell comes a sinewy, meditative novel of boyhood on the cusp of adulthood and the old on the cusp of the new. Black Swan Green tracks a single year in what is, for thirteen-year-old Jason Taylor, the sleepiest village in muddiest Worcestershire in a dying Cold War England, 1982. But the thirteen chapters, each a short story in its own right, create an exquisitely observed world that is anything but sleepy. A world of Kissingeresque realpolitik enacted in boys’ games on a frozen lake; of “nightcreeping” through the summer backyards of strangers; of the tabloid-fueled thrills of the Falklands War and its human toll; of the cruel, luscious Dawn Madden and her power-hungry boyfriend, Ross Wilcox; of a certain Madame Eva van Outryve de Crommelynck, an elderly bohemian emigré who is both more and less than she appears; of Jason’s search to replace his dead grandfather’s irreplaceable smashed watch before the crime is discovered; of first cigarettes, first kisses, first Duran Duran LPs, and first deaths; of Margaret Thatcher’s recession; of Gypsies camping in the woods and the hysteria they inspire; and, even closer to home, of a slow-motion divorce in four seasons. Pointed, funny, profound, left-field, elegiac, and painted with the stuff of life, Black Swan Green is David Mitchell’s subtlest and most effective achievement to date. Praise for Black Swan Green “[David Mitchell has created] one of the most endearing, smart, and funny young narrators ever to rise up from the pages of a novel. . . . The always fresh and brilliant writing will carry readers back to their own childhoods. . . . This enchanting novel makes us remember exactly what it was like.”—The Boston Globe “[David Mitchell is a] prodigiously daring and imaginative young writer. . . . As in the works of Thomas Pynchon and Herman Melville, one feels the roof of the narrative lifted off and oneself in thrall.”—Time

Book Synopsis Songs in the Key of Z by : Irwin Chusid
Download or read book Songs in the Key of Z written by Irwin Chusid and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2000-04-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outsider musicians can be the product of damaged DNA, alien abduction, drug fry, demonic possession, or simply sheer obliviousness. This book profiles dozens of outsider musicians, both prominent and obscure—figures such as The Shaggs, Syd Barrett, Tiny Tim, Jandek, Captain Beefheart, Daniel Johnston, Harry Partch, and The Legendary Stardust Cowboy—and presents their strange life stories along with photographs, interviews, cartoons, and discographies. About the only things these self-taught artists have in common are an utter lack of conventional tunefulness and an overabundance of earnestness and passion. But, believe it or not, they're worth listening to, often outmatching all contenders for inventiveness and originality. A CD featuring songs by artists profiled in the book is also available.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ultimate quest for the world's most mysterious creatures The Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, the Abominable Snowman -- these are the names of the elusive beasts that have caught the eye and captured the imaginations of people around the world for centuries. Recently, tales of these "monsters" have been corroborated by an increase in sightings, and out of these legends a new science has been born: cryptozoology -- the study of hidden animals. Cryptozoology A to Z, the first encyclopedia of its kind, contains nearly two hundred entries, including cryptids (the name given to these unusual beasts), new animal finds, and the explorers and scientists who search for them. Loren Coleman, one of the world's leading cryptozoologists, teams up with Jerome Clark, editor and author of several encyclopedias, to provide these definitive descriptions and many never-before-published drawings and photographs from eyewitnesses' detailed accounts. Full of insights into the methods of these scientists, exciting tales of discovery, and the history and evolution of this field, Cryptozoology A to Z is the most complete reference ever of the newest zoological science.
Download or read book Sigma 7 written by Colin Burgess and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colin Burgess offers a comprehensive yet personal look at the 1962 orbital mission of Wally Schirra aboard the spacecraft Sigma 7, the first book about this popular pioneering astronaut which explores his entire life and accomplishments. This continues the Pioneers in Early Spaceflight series, the volumes of which form an excellent record of Project Mercury's pioneering early phase of the Space Age. Schirra’s pre-NASA life is examined, as well as his training as a NASA astronaut and for his Mercury MA-8 flight. The 6-orbit flight of Sigma 7 is fully covered from its origins through to the spacecraft’s safe recovery from the ocean after a highly successful Mercury mission. Schirra’s participation on the Gemini 6 and Apollo 7 missions is also told, but in brief, and the book also relates his post-NASA life and activities through to his passing in 2007. The Mercury Seven occupy a unique spot in the history of human spaceflight, and Schirra is at last given his due as one of the contributing astronauts in this painstakingly researched book.

Download or read book Devil Monkey written by George Dudding and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-21 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strange creepy creature has been roaming Appalachia, the Midwest, and Alaska in the United States for over 100 years. It has also been reported in other countries such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and Nepal. The Devil Monkey is sometimes misidentified as either a kangaroo or a monkey because of its appearance and behavior. It exhibits certain combined features common to a baboon, a kangaroo, or a dog. There is a dispute as to what it is or where it comes from. Some believe it is a cryptid, an alien from another world, a visitor from a parallel universe, a paranormal entity, or a mythological beast. Most are in agreement that it is three-toed beast with sharp claws, is both bipedal and quadrupedal, has dark to light-colored fur, has a dog-like face, and usually has a tail. It has the ability to leap across a highway in a single bound. While writing this book, the author returned to his hometown of Point Pleasant, West Virginia to reinvestigate a sighting that occurred in 1966 during the days of the Mothman.
