Publisher's Synopsis
The Fortean Society was started in the United States in 1931 during a meeting held in the New York flat of American writer Charles Hoy Fort, in order to promote his ideas. The Fortean Society was primarily based in New York City, and was the forerunner of organizations studing unidentified flying objects and other paranormal phenomena. Its first president was Theodore Dreiser, an old friend of Charles Fort, who had helped to get his work published. Founding members of the Fortean Society included Tiffany Thayer, Booth Tarkington, Ben Hecht, Alexander Woollcott and many of New York's literati such as Dorothy Parker.The first issue of the Fortean Society Magazine appeared in September 1937. With the eleventh issue (Winter 1944-45), the title was changed to Doubt.The Fortean Society Magazine (Doubt) was published regularly until Thayer's death in Nantucket, Massachusetts in 1959, when the society went on hiatus and the magazine came to an end. In the Fortean Calendar, the year the Society was founded (1931) is equivalent to 1 FS.
