description
An entertaining look at outrageous fortune, this off-the-wall collection features tales of against-all-odds survivors, ludicrous luck, and death-defying near misses. Culled from newspaper reports around the globe, these brief accounts cover everything from the miraculous to the ridiculous. You'll read about:
•
The New Jersey man who survived a near-fatal mugging when the bullet to his chest ricocheted off his credit card-filled wallet.
•
The woman who ate for free in an Italian restaurant after a small stone from her dinner got wedged in her tooth-only to discover the next day that the stone was an uncut diamond worth thousands of dollars.
•
The two morgue attendants playing chess on the night shift who got the shock of their lives when one of the "corpses" sat up and moved one of the chess pieces.
•
The dumbstruck man confronting an oncoming train who promptly fainted and fell between the tracks-where the train passed over him without incident.
Back from the Dead proves one thing for sure: Lady Luck may be fickle, but she certainly has a good sense of humor.

Camille from Round Rock, Texas
I thought Back From The Dead....was amazing!!!! These incredible tales of survival, LUCK, and most of all coincidence would leave me laughing, shocked, or just plain speechless!!! I loved reading this book and would recommend it to anyone!!!! There are tales of people finding large sums of money, surviving deathly accidents, finding lost wedding rings after years of searching, or even coming back to life after being struck by a lightning bolt!!! These creepy, humorous, and breath taking stories are sure to leave you with a new belief in Lady Luck!!! Steve Moore's biggest fan, Camille
