Once more the denizens of obscure history, the men and women, heroes and villains, and people just like you and me who have etched their names on the pages of history have stepped forward to tell their stories.

Did you know the image of a beautiful, young Parisian girl who died in the late 1880s is still saving thousands of lives today?

Two young men, on February 22, 1979, pulled off the greatest college prank of all time, which is still celebrated annually at their alma mater.

Would you believe a famous chef created a dish so disgusting even a shark wouldn’t eat it?

Would it be possible to survive for three days on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean dressed only in your underwear? Learn how one man did exactly that.

Impossible but true: To win a bar bet, in the wee hours of the morning a pilot landed a small plane on a downtown Manhattan street.

Within this audiobook you will encounter the stories of spies, warriors, dogs, and criminals who have risen from the depths of history to amuse and amaze us. Take my hand and we will travel together though the dusty corridors of obscure history.
