Product Description
Still unsolved, still baffling, still claiming new victims. Here are the untold stories. A pilot reports a strange haze enveloping his plane, then disappears; eleven hours after fuel starvation, as if calling from a void, he is heard 600 miles away. He requests permission to land, then vanishes forever. A freighter steaming over placid seas disappears without a trace. A pleasure yacht ghosts past without a soul on board. A pilot calls for help because a "weird object" is harassing his plane. A jet collides with an "unknown" and is never found. . . . Into the Bermuda Triangle is the first comprehensive examination of these baffling disappearances in more than a generation. Drawing on official reports from the NTSB and other investigative agencies as well as interviews with scientists, theorists, and survivors, leading authority Gian Quasar not only sets the record straight on previously examined cases, he also offers a bulging file of new cases, the collective results of his twelve-year investigation. In meticulous detail this unflinching account: - Documents confirmed disappearances of airplanes and ships
- Gathers new testimony and reexamines old interviews from eyewitnesses and survivors
- Explores possible explanations ranging from zero-point energy to magnetic vortices
- Challenges our assumptions with the sheer weight of accumulated evidence
In this age of technological and scientific discovery, there are still mysteries that transcend understanding. The Bermuda Triangle is one. "The best book I've ever read on this important subject."—Andrew Griffin, The Town Talk

Passage Into Time January 9, 2007 Judy-Lynn Goldberg 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is a very interesting book and a bit eerie. It seems "Out-worldly" to lose technical equipment such as airplanes in a perfectly clear sky, especially when that's not what the pilots report seeing. Ships that disappear within hailing distance of the safe shores is also spooky. The book is really worth taking the time to read and get into. The photographs also are a great help.
Not bad June 17, 2007 Victor Villanueva (Colorado) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Has some really good information and it's a good way to get some facts on the subject. Overall, it's not expensive at all and it ships pretty fast. I recommend it if you have a school project or essay to write, it pretty much gives you enough facts and understanding of the subject to get started.
written by a quack. August 14, 2008 Joe Mac Guy (USA) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you want to read the National Enquieier type research, try this trash. I'm sure people who are not educated will follow it like sheep to the slaughter.
A book full of deception.... September 25, 2008 A CUSTOMER (CALIFORNIA) I have been a long time reader and researcher of the bermuda triangle and was very excited about this book until i read it. This book does contain some good information,but alot of it is fiction. The author is more interested in disproving other books than telling the truth. Much of his research differs from the accounts of the people who were there. The author Gian Quasar has no aviation or pilot expierence yet calls himself an expert. Mr Quasar considers navigation plot boards accurate, but any expierenced navigator or pilot knows that is false. It is written in the plot board manuals that they are inaccurate.I have several original manuals. The most famous triangle mystery is the flight 19 disappearance. Mr Quasar says the flight leader of flight 19, Charles Taylor was an outstanding navigator. The truth is he was a questionable navigator at best. On two trips before the flight 19 trip he had gotten his squadron so lost they had to ditch the planes and be rescued. The pilots that survived these two trips were interviewed and confirmed that he was a poor navigator. Mr Quasar even tries to discredit Larry Kusche( AUTHOR OF THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE MYSTERY SOLVED) by stating Mr Kusche refused to go to the bermuda triangle. Mr Kusche was a commercial pilot and flight instrutctor who flew the triangle many times. If Mr Quasar had done more "research" he would know that. The best book is still THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE MYSTERY SOLVED by Larry Kusche. Mr kusche did his research in the 60'S and 70'S when some of these people were still alive. He interviewed co-pilots,coast guard, military, and any and all living friends and family members. His book is written without the spin Mr Quasar has.
