Fredrick William Holiday, also known as "Ted Holiday" (1920-1979) was a British journalist, angler, cryptozoologist, and wildlife specialist. Published seven years after his premature death and following "The Great Orm of Loch Ness: A Practical Inquiry into the Nature and Habits of Water-Monsters" in 1969, and "The Dragon and the Disc: An Investigation into the Totally Fantastic" in 1973. Holiday claims to have seen the Loch Ness monster, "Nessie", on four occasions in the company of other witnesses. This is, in a sense, the third in a trilogy examining unexplained creatures and pheonomenon. The first title began w/a physical theory, the second a dimensional aspect, and finally the mysterious, often inexplicable nature of these events. "The Goblin Universe" features an introduction by Colin Wilson, who after reading his friend Holiday's book - which was not complete in Holiday's opinion - found it worthy of publishing. It is a look into the many enigmas found in the universe and the association between cryptids and the paranormal, with unique insight. Comparable to Jacque Vallee's "Passport to Magonia" in regards.

Near fine intriguing rarity and same wrapper. This anthology is a straightforward approach to some of the individuals that have baffled and intrigued from ancient to modern times. Each essay focuses on a mysterious persona who appeared to have special powers not easily explained. The spoon-bender, the 18th century founder of the Hell-Fire Club, the sinister monk of Imperial Russia, the "beast" of Black Magic, the astounding inventor who harnessed electricity and other, etc. The facts and myths are presented to the reader without romanticising so you can make up your own mind. From back panel: The occult revival which began in the early 1960's is a reaction against the worst absudities of modern science, its insistence that the univers is meaningless and purposeless, that evolution is a matter of chance, that man must be judged purely as an animal - or worse still, as a bundle of mechanical reflexes.
