Book explores unusual elements of disaster

"Sheppton: The Myth, Miracle & Music," by Maxim W. Furek, explores the supernatural elements of the 1963 Sheppton mine disaster.

The book documents a strange American mining disaster that occurred over 50 years ago and claimed one life resulting in vile accusations of cannibalism."There have been several books written about Sheppton, but I always thought that the comprehensive story, the blending of the miraculous, supernatural and technological, had never been told. There were far too many unanswered questions that had not been addressed. That was what I attempted to do. I wanted to fill in the blanks and connect the dots and just follow the story."For more information, visit shepptonmyth.com.
