Charles Fort: The Man who Invented the Supernatural | 
pick400th anniversary this month of the magazine named after the subject of Steinmeyer‘s excellent biography. Before I read it I thought Fort was some sort of trickster figure but after I‘d finished I realised that he was actually a wonderfully eccentric figure who devoted his life to his extraordinary interests. A wonderful man, who once emigrated because he got banned from the library. My type of hero.
