26 The Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp (cover story)

36 The Strangest Family in England
In an extract from his new book, Great British Eccentrics, SD Tucker tells the story of the real-life Addams Family who wrote poems, hunted ghosts and tried to paint cows to fit in with the crockery.

48 Tragic Songs from the Grassy Knoll: A Musical History of the JFK Assassination
