The book is a collection of strange and anomalous phenomena that Fort collected from a variety of sources, including newspapers, scientific journals, and personal accounts.Fort was interested in unexplained phenomena and sought to gather evidence for his belief that there were many strange events that did not fit into the traditional categories of science or religion. He coined the term "damned data" to describe these anomalies and argued that they should not be ignored or dismissed by mainstream science.The book covers a wide range of topics, including UFO sightings, strange weather patterns, mysterious disappearances, and unexplained phenomena in nature. Fort presents the data without drawing any conclusions, leaving it up to the reader to make sense of the strange occurrences."The Book of the Damned" was controversial when it was first published, as it challenged the traditional views of science and the supernatural. While some of Fort's claims and theories have been criticized and debunked, his work has had a significant impact on the development of paranormal and anomalous research.
