The Book of the Damned
Description
The Book of the Damned is a book by Charles Fort, first published in 1919. This groundbreaking work is a compilation of unexplained phenomena and anomalies—ranging from strange falls of objects from the sky to mysterious astronomical and atmospheric events—that were disregarded or dismissed by conventional science. Fort challenged the boundaries of accepted knowledge and introduced a new lens through which to view reality, one that entertained the existence of the unknown and the inexplicable. His skeptical yet imaginative approach laid the groundwork for the field of anomalistics and greatly influenced later writers and researchers interested in the paranormal, UFOs, and fringe science. Though Fort’s writing style is often regarded as rambling, obscure, and riddled with sarcasm, it contributes to the chaotic charm and otherworldly atmosphere of the book. The Book of the Damned is both a critique of scientific dogma and a provocative invitation to consider alternative explanations for the world’s mysteries.
