How did a little boy from upstate New York become the 20th century’s leading anomalist? Plenty happened to Keel before Point Pleasant, West Virginia and Louis Proud dishes the biographical details, outlining Keel’s career with the pulps, and capturing the moment when John tumbled down the rabbit hole. Rather than clambering his way out in Part Two, Keel made himself at home by hobnobbing with ultraterrestrials and initiating himself with the deepest lore. For example: the Masonic overtones and allusions to Women-in-Black found within The Long Island File curated by Doug Skinner. Just as an aside, we do recommend picking up a copy of Keel’s seminal Jadoo (UK) and his renowned Operation Trojan Horse (UK) for yourself, or as a gift for forteans in your life who think Giorgio Tsoukalos is the last word in weird.
