Most people probably know the familiar story of what happens in the Bermuda Triangle: a ship or plane disappears in perfect weather and no debris are found. There is no apparent cause for the disappearances and it is almost as though they were "snatched into outer space."
"The Bermuda Triangle Mystery - Solved" easily refutes all such claims. It seems that most disappearances happened to coincide with recorded heavy storms, a fact which is left unmentioned by other Triangle writers. In fact, many of those writers have actually claimed that there was perfect weather in the area, which is directly refuted by Kusche in his research: the 1967 loss of the "Witchcraft" is a case in point. Some of the ships and planes which are credited as Triangle fatalities were never near the Triangle at all, and some never even existed (fictional disappearances in other words).
Although the true causes of most of these can never be known for certain, by documenting weather conditions, recovered debris, witnesses's descriptions, and other scraps of info Kusche can point to a probable cause which fits the evidence much better than UFO kidnappings or lasers from a sunken Atlantis.
Although Kusche dispells most of the myths, reality is as fascinating as anything dreamed up in tabloid magazines. The by-now famous stories of the Mary Celeste, Cyclops, Carroll A. Deering, Flight 19, the Star Tiger, and the Marine Sulpher Queen are especially described in detail, and it's even more interesting than the legend.
One thing that's shocking is how poorly researched the Triangle was before Kusche. With all the books being written about it, you would think that each writer would go back to the original newspapers from the time and check on the facts - an elementary procedure that is practically a given if you're writing about something in the past. But evidently no one did that before Kusche; it seems all the Bermuda Triangle "researchers" just copied each other's books.
This is the only book you can get that has trustworthy information about the ships that were lost in the Bermuda Triangle. Everything else is soaked with fiction.
