The Greatest Mysteries Ever!: History's Biggest Puzzles and the People Who Made Them
The Greatest Mysteries…Ever! takes a look at those baffling puzzles, conundrums, and secrets that have defied explanation through the ages and attempts to crack history’s greatest riddles. • It tries to establish the truth behind well-known legends, including Atlantis, King Arthur, and the abominable snowman. • It looks at questions of identity, such as who sat for the Mona Lisa? Who wrote Shakespeare’s plays? And who does the Turin Shroud show? • And it sifts through the evidence of some unexplained disappearances, including Amelia Earhart, the crew of the Mary Celeste, and the Zodiac killer. Of course, the solution often remains tantalizingly just out of reach. But, in the end, it is exactly this sense of mystery that attracts us to these unfinished stories in the first place.
