All his life, Charles Fort tirelessly collected facts that are usually bashfully called “inexplicable.” All his life he struggled with official science, which unconditionally rejected what could not be explained within the framework of mainstream theories and disciplines. All his life he was looking for answers to questions that no one asked - except himself - and fought against inertia and routine, as Don Quixote once did with windmills. He collected a huge card index of the unknown and unknown, thousands of cards and cross-references , a real database in the modern sense of the term. And Charles Fort's books, which continue to be reprinted, are a worthy monument to his courageous quest.
