Good Press, 2019

In "The Book of the Damned," Charles Fort presents a groundbreaking analysis of anomalies and unexplained phenomena that defy conventional scientific understanding. Through a unique amalgamation of investigative journalism and speculative reasoning, Fort explores instances of meteorological oddities, mysterious objects, and unclassifiable events, examining what he terms the 'damned' data overlooked by mainstream science. His literary style blends wit with erudition, evoking a sense of inquiry that invites readers to ponder the vast, often dismissed realm of the inexplicable. This work holds a distinct place in the literary context of early 20th-century skepticism, foreshadowing future interests in the paranormal and fringe science. Fort, born in 1874, was a pioneering figure in the field of anomalous phenomena and a fervent critic of the scientific establishment. His journalistic background provided him with a platform to confront the boundaries of accepted knowledge, while his rich personal experiences shaped his fascination with the unexplained. His tireless investigation into the overlooked data reflects his desire to challenge reductive narratives and embrace the uncertainties of the world around us. "The Book of the Damned" is highly recommended for those curious about the secrets of the universe and the limits of human understanding. It invites readers to embrace the mysteries of existence and critique the rigid structures of science, making it a thought-provoking read for both skeptics and believers alike.
