n nAn exhaustive investigation of the case of Gef, a talking mongoose or man-weasel, who appeared to a family living on the Isle of Man.n nI am the fifth dimension I am the eighth wonder of the world n nDuring the mid-1930s, British and overseas newspapers were full of incredible stories about Gef, a talking mongoose or man-weasel who had allegedly appeared in the home of the Irvings, a farming family in a remote district of the Isle of Man. The creature was said to speak in several languages, to sing, to steal objects from nearby farms, and to eavesdrop on local people.n nDespite written reports, magazine articles and books, several photographs, fur samples and paw prints, voluminous correspondence, and signed eyewitness statements, there is still no consensus as to what was really happening to the Irving family.n nWas it a hoax? An extreme case of folie plusieurs? A poltergeist? The possession of an animal by an evil spirit? Now you can read all the evidence and decide for yourself. Seven years research and interviews, photographs (many previously unseen), interviews with surviving witnesses, visits to the site--all are presented in this book, the first examination of the case for seventy years.n nIn the words of its mischievous, enigmatic subject, If you knew what I know, youd know a hell of a lot n
