Welcome to the Frauds, Myths, and Mysteries homepage. My purpose here is to provide you with links to all of the websites that are listed in the Best of the Web sections of each of my book’s chapters. Simply click on any of the chapters listed on the table below to be transported to the links for that chapter. When you get there, a simple click on any of the website addresses will take you to that site on the web. Because websites are almost always in a state of flux, it is possible, and even likely, that some of the sites I have listed here will have moved, some may be temporarily unavailable, and a few may have been removed from the web altogether. Nevertheless, I trust that most of these sites will be up and running and will help you in your search for more answers and scientific explanations for frauds, myths, and mysteries about the human past. Happy surfing!
