Title: Mildly entertaining, but not very useful
Product review: An attempt was made to pack a lot of information into this slender book. There are numerous sightings or locations listed, but only extremely brief details about each (usually a couple of sentences).There are some statements that make me think the author wasn't too critical or thoughtful in screening the information listed--In one case, witnesses are quoted as hearing the whistle of a sailing ship blow. Don't count on being able to locate specific places, even for listings such as stone circles. Very little information or specifics are provided in most cases.As the previous reviewer stated, Mexico is ignored. The rich heritage of "mysteriousness" in Hawaii is also ignored, though this is more geographically justifiable. The book has numerous illustrations and photographs, but they are not of very good quality.If you are considering purchase of this book, I'd suggest considering Salvatore M. Trento's regional guides instead.
