Booklist

Billed as a "tantalizing follow-up" to Aron's book on oddities and conundrums of American history, this more widely focused work weighs conflicting views on the issues involved in answering such chapter-entitling queries as "Who Was King Arthur?" or "Did Jesus Die on the Cross?" or "Was Gorbachev Part of the August Coup?" In most cases, the answer Aron arrives at is a suitable "nobody knows for sure," but the brief summaries of the issues and the brisk examinations of competing claims and theories about them afford readers more information and insight about some delicious historical riddles. In "Did Martin Guerre Return?" Aron reviews sixteenth-century records to assess a cornucopia of deception, adultery, and mistaken identity. In "Did Hitler Murder His Niece?" the oft-alluded-to kink in Hitler's libido is given a name, unidinism (it involves urine--enough said?). Wonderful for light, occasional reading, Aron's latest offering proves again that history can be fun and as strange, at least, as fiction. Mike Tribby

PRAISE FOR UNSOLVED MYSTERIES OF HISTORY

"Like a sleuth, Aron pieces together the possible answers . . . It’s an engaging way to learn more about history and the new evidence that sheds light on long-standing theories." ––Daily Press

"Aron has produced a fascinating and judicious description of historical mysteries from the Neanderthals to Gorbachev. His entertaining account of historical controversies will leave every reader the wiser about the past." ––Jack F. Matlock Jr., former U.S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union

"With unerring good sense and in well-paced prose, Paul Aron solves as best he can the major who-done-its, did-it-happens, and did-it-have-to-happens of world history. Unsolved Mysteries of History should keep readers engaged well into the night."–– Adam Potkay, author, A Passion for Happiness
