4-6Mysterious & Unknown series.
These books offer detailed explorations of their title subjects. Cross-cultural, historical, and contemporary anecdotes will enthrall receptive readers. The texts are long and quite dense; half- to full-page stock photos and illustrations, along with pull-quotes and sidebars, add visual interest and help break up the pages, though the large images and their lengthy captions are often not placed with the text they support. Reading list, websites. Bib., ind. Review covers these Mysterious & Unknown titles: Crop Circles and Werewolves.
