On the night of November 15, 1996, two adventurous youngcouples drove into the TNT area north of Point Pleasant, WV. What they saw in the countryside that night has evolved into one of the great mysteries ofall time: just who--or what--was the Mothman? This book will answer many questions regarding just what those couples saw outside the abandoned North Power Plant that night. Culled from a variety of sources, the materials presented inside are not conjecture--the authors are careful not to cross the line between fact and fiction--leaving any decisions regarding the truth behind the Mothman legend solely up to the reader. The text features eyewitness accounts, newspaper clippings, and previously unpublished information. It is sure to be of interest to readers as a tie-in with the January 2002 release of Sony Pictures' "The Mothman Prophecies" starring Richard Gere.

Excerpt from The Book of the Pleasant Legends: Throughtful Hours, and Tender Melodies, Secular and Scared, Being a Collection of Choice Selections We had occasion recently to visit one of the most beautiful sections of Pennsylvania, where mountain, valley, and stream combine to cre ate the various types of landscape so necessary to the development of the poetical element in man's nature, and, while enjoying the peaceful quietude of a retired and unfrequented village, at the hospitable home of the village pastor, we met with a youth, of some eighteen or twenty years, whose history interested us greatly. We learned of him that he was born near the town of Gettysburg, in Adams County, Pennsylvania, if we rightly remember, in the year 1853, but when very young removed with his parents to the mountains in the southwestern part of his native county. Where he vet resided at the time of our meeting. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
