This book was right up my alley.... supernatural occurrences, Native American stories and legends, all told by someone who attempts to go about it all as scientifically as possible- sign me up! I enjoyed this from start to finish- I couldn't put it down at times, and found myself with the covers pulled over my head, continuing to read a bit longer. The chapters of the Native American legends were especially intriguing, and I feel like I could have read an entire book of just those stories- the actual investigations were like a bonus. I'll absolutely be recommending this book, as we have readers who come in looking for something just like this! I hope Stanley Milford, Jr will consider writing a follow-up, with more of his investigations. I, for one, will be in line to read it!
Having seen the author on television, I was very interested in reading his book. I found him very intelligent, articulate and completely credible…both on camera and in print. His experiences made an intriguing read, and the inclusion of the history of the Navajo Rangers and the lore of his people, created a fascinating book.
I like to thank NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this book.
I recognize the author, because he has been in a lot of documentaries I've watched over the years. I love seeing him pop up because he approaches it from a non-western view in terms of ghosts. His Native American and Western heritage go hand and hand in this which is why I quickly requested this.
While I really enjoy his stories, it took a while to get to them. And when you got to them, there wasn't much there. It's a short book (under 300 pages). I liked his backstory on the various paranormal things he has encountered and their connection to Native American folklore / myths.
But... there isn't much there.
I'd suggest a purchase for supporting the guy but a read for truly diehards.
