The Damned Universe of Charles Fort

by Louis Kaplan

Nonfiction. Charles Fort collected the rejects and crackpots of science, classifying them in "real-unreal" zones: UFOs, living objects falling from the sky, phantom bullets, spontaneous combustion, showers of blood, the Super-Sargasso Sea, teleportation. Louis Kaplan brings new life to this posthum(or)ous and (foot)notable thinker.

I cannot finish this because I cannot even get through the introduction of this book. Once it is from Fort's works it may be better but I would still have to read through the author's remarks which may be just as dry and boring as the introduction.
