The Bermuda Triangle

Why Do You Never Hear About The Bermuda Triangle Anymore? Because The Mystery Of The Bermuda Triangle Has Been Solved Yet Again. In fact, there never was a real mystery, as Larry Kusche showed in his book Bermuda Triangle Mystery – Solved, originally published in 1975. From the Amazon blurb:

The mystery of the Bermuda Triangle had been told and retold in books, magazine articles, and on television and radio talk shows for several years when, in 1972, Larry Kusche, then a reference librarian, decided to collect all the information he could find on each incident. He made contact with the Coast Guard, the Air Force, Lloyd’s of London, and many other agencies. He obtained microfilm copies of newspapers from cities where various incidents had been reported.This exhaustive research had an unexpected result – it solved the mystery. It also resulted in the publication of The Bermuda Triangle Mystery-Solved, which is now back in print.Larry Kusche’s book is more than an investigation of a mystery; it is a fascinating case history of a “manufactured mystery” in the making. It shows how over the years the raw materials of official accident reports, newspaper accounts, articles in the mainstream press, and word of mouth have been assimilated into a “false mystery.”
