Invisible Horizons: Strange Mysteries of the High Seas - Astounding True Stories That Defy Logic

Who can explain the mysteries of the sea? Who can say where reality ends and fantasy begins?

In "Invisible Horizons," newspaperman Vincent Gaddis, who specializes in exploring the borderland where fact emerges from myth and legend, has relied upon personal interviews, previously classified documents, and official sources such as the U.S. Navy Hydrographic Office to try and solve many of the oustanding puzzles that have plagued seafaring men for millennia.

Gaddis refuses to ignore what man does not understand. He is brave enough to say aloud what might have happened in the following situations:

-The stories of sea monsters

-The eerie tales of ghost ships and phantom crews

-The specters that led foundering craft to safety - or destruction

Gaddis, a native of Ohio, has written numerous articles for national magazines, and is a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians.

"In this factual, documented collection of astounding incidents, fact again proves stranger than fiction. In this volume, the reader will find a treasury of thought-provoking material in the realm of what Rod Serling calls "The Twilight Zone." -The St. Paul Pioneer

I’ve read (and still have) the 1965 hardcover edition of this book and it’s fascinating. Many things that still have no answer 55 years later. Highly recommended for speculation buffs.
