Top Ten Fortean Books (Esoterica & the Occult)


A few weeks ago, on the 7th of February, dailygrail.com began running a poll that requested a list of the Top Ten Fortean Books in the category of esoterica and the occult.  I found it difficult to narrow down the list to only ten titles, but eventually settled on these (which include nine nonfiction books and one novel): 

1. The Books of Charles Fort by Charles Fort
2. The Secret Teachings of All Ages by Manly. P. Hall
3. The Mothman Prophecies by John A. Keel
4. Monstrum!: A Wizard's Tale by Tony "Doc" Shiels
5. Flying Saucers and the Three Men by Albert K. Bender
6. The Goblin Universe by Ted Holiday
7. The Morning of the Magicians by Jacques Bergier & Louis Pauwels
8. The New Inquisition by Robert Anton Wilson
9. Unified Physics by Reginald Irvan Gray
10. A Voyage to Arcturus by David Lindsay
