Loss of life, destruction, unending pain and misery - the results of war never seem to make sense. War defies logic. Having searched through stacks of periodicals, military reports, interviews, and other publications, author William Breuer has come up with over one hundred such illogical events, and presents them in Unexplained Mysteries of World War II. From popular mysteries to barely believable happenings, Breuer sheds light on the absurdity of war from a different angle.

The book is broken down into multiple sections, and delves into mysteries like:
  • Who torched the Normandie in New York Harbor?
  • Did a New Yorker ad warn of Pearl Harbor?
  • Did Churchill have a “feeling” that saved his life?
  • Ernest Hemingway lives to tell about switching seats.
  • The night when an American and Japanese soldier accidentally shares a foxhole overnight.
  • A U-boat gives a battleship a piggyback ride in the Atlantic.

Book Description:
Loss of life, destruction, unending pain and misery - the results of war never seem to make sense. But war is also a breeding ground for illogical occurrences, coincidences, premonitions, mysteries and twists of fate. Over 100 of these events are detailed here.
From the Publisher:
This is the first comprehensive book on the intriguing arena of the mysterious, baffling, and oddly coincidental events during World War II. No other book looks at these fascinating unexplainable occurrences, which are recounted vividly and dramatically. The author has collected his material from newspapers, magazines, and from interviews and correspondence with participants.
