"Wild Talents" captures Charles Fort at his finest, most thought provoking, and wittiest. Containing accounts of--among numerous other bizarre topics--strange coincidences, vampires, werewolves, talking dogs, poltergeist activity, teleportation, witchcraft, vanishing people, spontaneous human combustion, and the escapades of the "mad bats of Trinidad," the book is essential reading for anyone wanting to learn about the early years of research into the myriad mysteries of this world and beyond.
