4.0 out of 5 stars Entranced, interested New Englander!, March 8, 2000
This review is from: Ghosts of New England (Hardcover)
I bought this book a couple of weeks back at a local book store. I guess just the name of the book caught my eye, New England Ghost Stories. I'm from New England, so I wanted to check it out and so far I can't put the book down. I would love to read more of Hans Holzer's books in the near future. He's a great author.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great Idea, Poor Follow-through, August 5, 2001
This review is from: Ghosts of New England (Hardcover)
I have read many books of this genre, more than one of Mr. Holzer's. This is by far his worst work. The biggest problem is the way that he writes. It is apparent in his other books, but not as prominent. He comes off as if he is the world's best ghost hunter and that his opinion's are fact. Many times he states in the book that he doubts and discredits any person that hasn't in the past had some kind of psychic occurence. There is no history to any "haunt". He and his medium are the only credible people in any story. My overall consenus is that he is getting old and is trying to cash in on a few more books. there was no thought or follow through, just cocky, arrogant fatigue in this book. If you want to read a real good ghost book, check out Citro.

2.0 out of 5 stars its ok........., July 14, 2001
By 
This review is from: Ghosts of New England (Hardcover)
I give this book only a two star rate. This book is ok, the author I feel is a little repateivtive in his writting. He relies heavy on channeling with very little history if any to back things up. Its interesting and belevable but over all its not a book I would buy new, buy it used. Its still a good read but most of the stories are a bit old.
