The staggering success of James Cameron's blockbuster epic film Titanic illustrates the fact that the world continues to be fascinated with everything surrounding the ship and its sinking. However, for the Titanic connoisseur; there has been no one-stop source for everything Titanic ... until now.Spignesi, that renowned chronicler of pop culture, examines everything from the construction of the ship (including its cargo, supplies, and crew members) and the facts surrounding its passengers and those who survived to how the news media of the time covered the wreck, rumors, myths and legends, and the ultimate discovery of the ship on the floor of the Atlantic, more than two miles down. The Titanic Timeline (beginning in 1850) provides a massive collection of quotes about the ship and a comprehensive listing of Titanic books and films, related organizations, museums, web sites, and more.

Nel 1919 un oscuro bibliotecario di New York, Charles H. Fort, pubblicò un'opera che mise a soqquadro gli ambienti intellettuali americani, il volume si intitolava "Il libro dei dannati", e in esso Fort catalogava con scrupolo maniacale una serie di episodi "ai confini della realtà" se non abbondantemente oltre. A distanza di quasi un secolo dalla fatica di Fort, ecco Stephen I. Spignesi muoversi nella medesima direzione con "I 100 grandi fenomeni inspiegabili", un compendio di tutti i misteri irrisolti che hanno accompagnato, e accompagnano tuttora, le vicende del genere umano sul pianeta Terra.
