Author(s): Albert Jack

Gift/Humour

Gathering together all the strangest, sickest, funniest and most unforgettable urban legends, Albert Jack recounts them with his usual deadpan humour. But this is far more than merely a book of urban legends. Like his previous books, it is also a detective story. Exploring the real events behind conspiracy theories, the exaggerations of history and the assumptions of old wives' tales (and self-help books amongst many, many other things), Albert Jack shows us that the truth can definitely be stranger than fiction.
