Really interesting collection. I guess most of these pieces were previously published in the New Yorker, but they were all new to me.

39/150 I find I enjoy Preston's fiction more than his non-fiction. I'll give this a pick, because it was interesting and made me want to read more about archeology and anthropology, but it's on the low end of the scale. 3 ⭐⭐⭐
39th book finished for #Readaway2024 @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES @Andrew65
For the most part, I am enjoying the conversational tone of the writing. These are true stories of mysteries. Some of these events I have heard of, others are new to me. The book is made up of various articles written for different publications, each chapter exploring a different topic. Douglas Preston is one of my favorite authors. I am amazed by what an interesting life he leads. This explores certain mysteries in greater detail.
