Haskins Society Journal 2001 Studies in Medieval History Book

I actually enjoyed this book allot. iI think the authors purpose was to share what exciting\bizarre mysterious stories in Illinois. The theme of this book is kind of a mix of horror and mystery. Troy Taylor is an Illinois resident who is fascinated with history and ghost stories. He does a great job of relating the history of a particular place along with the allegations made about it being haunted without drawing conclusions. He lets the reader be the judge. He does not condone people trespassing in grave yards or other places that should be kept private and so often just gives a general location of the place in question. its a great piece filled with fun and great interest, but not necessarily to be taken with entire seriousness. Definitely worth the time and fully enjoyable!
