One of the most successful entertainment figures of his time, Robert Ripley’s life is the stuff of a classic American fairy tale. Bucktoothed and hampered by shyness, Ripley turned his sense of being an outsider into an appreciation of the weird and wonderful. He sold his first cartoon to LIFE magazine at eighteen, but it was his wildly popular ‘Believe It or Not!’ radio shows that won him international fame, and spurred him on to search the globe’s farthest corners for bizarre facts, human curiosities and shocking phenomena. Ripley delighted in making preposterous declarations that somehow turned out to be true – such as that Charles Lindburgh was only the sixty-seventh man to fly across the Atlantic or that ‘The Star Spangled Banner’ was not the USA’s national anthem. And he demanded respect for those who were labelled ‘eccentrics’ or ‘freaks’ – whether it be E. L. Blystone, who wrote 2,871 alphabet letters on a grain of rice, or the man who could swallow his own nose. By the 1930s, Ripley possessed a wide fortune, a private yacht and a huge mansion stocked with such oddities as shrunken heads and medieval torture devices. His pioneering firsts in print, radio and television tapped into something deep in the American consciousness – a taste for the titillating and exotic, and a fascination with the fastest, biggest, wackiest and weirdest – and ensured a worldwide legacy that continues today. This compelling biography portrays a man who was dedicated to exalting the strange and unusual – but who may have been the most amazing oddity of all.

The Curious-man 2 (Divine Dream): Introduction:A Curious person appeared as the Curious-man in the first book of the series of the Curious-man named 'Discovery of the Divine Program'. He was always curious to find out reasons of different facts from childhood. So he asked many questions to his mother in childhood but his mother was unable to answer most of his curious questions, so she replied him many times 'I don't know, the God knows everything'. Then he tried to find out the identity of the God from childhood for getting answers of his unsolved curious questions which were gathered in his mind. His inquisitive vision to find out the identity of the God from childhood was narrated in the first book of the series of the Curious-man named 'Discovery of the Divine Program'. We knew from the first book of the series of the Curious-man named 'Discovery of the Divine Program' that the Curious-man discovered'Everything goes on a program in the universe' but'who is the programmer of the universe?' and it was the million dollar question then in his mind. Eventually he thought that the Almighty God is the Super Programmer.He described this ideology in different ways to the people and his ideology gradually became popular. So one day he was invited as guest in a famous television channel show. The show events were also elaborated in the first book named 'Discovery of the Divine Program'. After finishing the program he stayed at a hotel that night and next day morning he prepared to come back at home. So he rode a taxi to reach railway station. Suddenly he noticed that a couple distributed a chocolate and a leaflet to car drivers on the road. He got down from the taxi to find out the actual reason behind it. We know what's happened then. The first story of the series of the Curious-man as Curious-man-1 was ended there. After that the second story of the series of the Curious-man as the Curious-man-2 is starting from there in this book named 'Divine Dream'. ) I (The Curious-man was walking with a bag on his back and a smart phone in his hand on a pavement for getting taxi to reach the railway station immediately. He had a returned reservation ticket, so he had to reach railway station timely. He was excited to reach at home covering long distance after fulfilling a childhood desire. He dreamed in childhood that one day he would be famous and he would be called for interview in television channel like celebrities. Practically he was invited to a television channel being popular of his ideology 'Everything goes on a program in the Universe' on every video which was uploaded by him on YouTube; and so he was eager to share his previous night's experience of fast television show in his life with his mother and his other intimates as soon as possible. Although he had enough time in hand to reach railway station but he was eager to reach the railway station. Because he knew that celebrities always try to avoid public places for keeping themselves valuable or avoiding public hazards. He started to think himself as a small celebrity and said himself while walking, 'if the public gather to him how to handle them, I need much money to lead celebrity's life, I will have to buy a personal car to avoid public hazards but I am unable to afford taxi fare for local transportation, I always use by-cycle for local transportation, I don't know how to earn so much money, Oh My Almighty mother! You find the way, why are you making me so poor?'Suddenly a taxi stopped near him and the driver of the taxi asked him outing his head from the window of the taxi, 'Where will you go?' The Curious-man looked the taxi driver and asked, 'Will you go to railway station?' Taxi driver replied, 'Yes, come in quickly' opening the door of the car. He got into the car quickly and took seat putting his bag aside. The car was running towards station. Few minutes later the car stopped near a beautiful young fairy lady.

Mark Hodder's second Burton & Swinburne steampunk adventure, following the acclaimed The Strange Affair of Spring Heeled Jack, is filled with eccentric steam-driven technology, grotesque characters, and a deepening mystery. When a clockwork-powered man of brass is found abandoned in Trafalgar Square, Burton and his assistant, the wayward poet Algernon Swinburne, find themselves on the trail of the stolen Garnier Collection--black diamonds rumored to be fragments of the Lemurian Eye of Naga, a meteorite that fell to Earth in prehistoric times. From a haunted mansion to the Bedlam madhouse, from South America to Australia, from séances to a secret labyrinth, Burton struggles with shadowy opponents and his own inner demons. Can the king's agent expose a plot that threatens to rip the British Empire apart, leading to an international conflict the like of which the world has never seen? And what part does the clockwork man have to play? From the Trade Paperback edition.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A modern classic—both poignant and funny—about a boy with autism who sets out to solve the murder of a neighbor's dog and discovers unexpected truths about himself and the world. “Disorienting and reorienting the reader to devastating effect.... Suspenseful and harrowing.” —The New York Times Book Review Christopher John Francis Boone knows all the countries of the world and their capitals and every prime number up to 7,057. He relates well to animals but has no understanding of human emotions. He cannot stand to be touched. And he detests the color yellow. This improbable story of Christopher's quest to investigate the suspicious death of a neighborhood dog makes for one of the most captivating, unusual, and widely heralded novels in recent years.
