The eighth edition of the 100 Stories series brings you a continued dose of the weird history you know and love. There are serial killers, strange characters, head-scratching events, and more. As always, this series aims to show you that things aren't any worse than ever...it's always been a crazy world out there. Don't buy into all the media fear mongering. Things, technically, have actually never been better. Sure, the Russians are always up to something. There's unrest in the Middle East. There's whatever nonsense going on in the political world that threatens to wipe out the fabric of our democracy and decades of human progress. But it isn't that bad. The number of active serial killers is dwindling. There are fewer diseases that can kill us. Wars, though they still exist, are fewer and farther between and shorter lived. And after reading this book, you'll feel better about living in today's world than any other point in history.
