Extraordinary Encounters: An Encyclopedia of Extraterrestrials and Otherworldy Beings
By: Clark, Jerome
Published by: ABC-CLIO
It didn't start with The X-Files. Since at least the nineteenth century, human beings all over the world have held the conviction that interaction with extraterrestrials, angels, fairy-folk, other-dimensional intelligences, hollow-earth inhabitants, and a whole range of fantastic beings is not only possible - but frequent. Arising both from the paranormal and imaginative experiences of individuals and from mass belief in unearthly entities and realms, these beings are said to play an unseen role in humanity's history and future.
Extraordinary Encounters: An Encyclopedia of Extraterrestrials and Otherworldly Beings is the first-ever illustrated A-to-Z encyclopedia to explore these fascinating modern-day beliefs, personalities, beings, and events. An amazing amalgam of folk religion, folk science, pop culture, and fantasy, this offbeat encyclopedia will intrigue, excite, and scare the wits out of readers of all ages.

Fertility Goddesses, Groundhog Bellies and the Coca-Cola Company
By: Kalapos, Gabriella
Published by: Insomniac Library
Year after year, many of us continue to perform holiday rituals with little or no understanding of what they mean or what purpose they serve. A part of us yearns to understand how and why these special days originated. Why does Groundhog Day exist and what does it have to do with the Virgin Mary and menstruation? What does May Day have to do with a celebration of human sexuality and Roman prostitutes? Where did Valentine's Day come from — did the greeting card, chocolate, and florist companies create it, or is there something original, pure, and maybe even carnal about it?

Finding Atlantis
By: King, David
Published by: Crown Publishing Group
The untold story of a fascinating Renaissance man on an adventurous hunt for a lost civilization—an epic quest through castles, courts, mythologies, and the spectacular world of the imagination. What do Zeus, Apollo, and the gods of Mount Olympus have in common with Odin, Thor, and the gods of Valhalla? What do these, in turn, have to do with the shades of Hades, the pharaohs of Egypt, and the glories of fabled Atlantis? In 1679, Olof Rudbeck stunned the world with the answer: They could all be traced to an ancient lost civilization that once thrived in the far north of Rudbeck’s native Sweden.
