Mrs : and other strange-but-true tales from American history

Experience an American history you never learned in school'one full of mischievous poltergeists, mysterious Sasquatches, and Ouija board'induced madness'in this collection of unbelievably strange-but-true Americana tales. American history isn't just what you read in your high school textbooks'there's a wild and weird side to our past, filled with strange creatures, bizarre happenings, and fantastical figures. Researcher and writer Robert Damon Schneck has devoted more than a decade to sleuthing out these historically verified, forgotten gems of American history'whether the life history of a psychic who advised a president, the story of a Ouija board addiction that drove a family to the brink of madness, or the tale of how one very inspired inventor literally lost his head'and presenting them for modern readers.
