Richard Winer is an American author of non-fiction books dealing mainly with the supernatural or the paranormal. He is best known for his work on the Bermuda Triangle: The Devil's Triangle (1974, Bantam Books), The Devil's Triangle 2 (Bantam Books 1975), and From The Devil's Triangle to The Devil's Jaw (Bantam Books 1977). He also completed a TV film documentary on the Devil's Triangle
Richard Winer's The Devil's Triangle was one of the first books to capitalize off the Bermuda Triangle, and he turned it into a silly but successful documentary highlighted by Vincent Price's hammy narration. Inevitably he followed its success with several follow-ups, most recycling old paranormal lore and piecing together random anecdotes in imitation of a book. Thus The Devil's Triangle 2, a quick cash-in as imaginative as its title. Winer adds little to his previous book's musings on the disappearances of ships, planes and people in the Atlantic. Instead, he connects a variety of random ghost stories, familiar occult capers (ephemera like the moving coffins of Barbados make an appearance, somehow connected to the Triangle) and rehashes some stories he already covered in the first book. And yet, this only results in 80 pages of material. So Winer gooses the text to book length with anecdotes about scuba diving in the Caribbean and a psychic trying to divine the path of the vanished Flight 19. Worst of all, Winer devotes a whole chapter to fan letters he received after the first book's release (amusingly, future Bermuda Triangle Mystery: Solved author Larry Kusche is among Winer's correspondents). There's nothing new and little of substance here, but I assume it made Winer some money back in the day and that's what matters.
Interesante libro , calculando la época para cuando fue escrito. Llena al lector del gran misterio en el triángulo y motiva para seguir investigando para que llegue a su propia conclusión de lo que realmente ocurre y cuáles han sido los resultados de las millones de investigaciones que se han realizado.
The author obviously had some material left and comes up with a second volume on the topic. Ghost train, dancing coffins, wave of death... as in volume 1 there is a fine photo section included. And of course the speculations about what's happening here continues. Somehow I didn't connect with this one. For those who liked volume 1 or those who aren't too deep into that topic.
Very informative, well researched, and well written. The chapters moved very fast would recommend for anyone who wants to learn more about the mystery that is the Bermuda Triangle.
