Enigmatic Events

Blackwood, Gary L. Enigmatic Events. Marshall Cavendish Benchmark: 2006. ISBN: 2-0040-2375-5. Ages 12 and up.


Gary Blackwood gave facts about seven unsolved historical mysteries such as Mary Celeste and the Roanoke Colony. Through the use of interesting pictures and drawings, the author's point was strengthened and illustrated. After giving all of the facts and theories, he moved on to the next mystery. If you become especially interested in any of the mysteries, there is a list of books with more information in the index. The author tends to use complicated and elaborate words, so I would recommend this book for 12 year olds and up.
