The Silver Bridge to the imagination Nov 30, 2008
By Michelle Gray Barker may never have found the Mothman or proved that it existed, but the stories he collected/created in The Silver Bridge were fascinating nonetheless. The book intertwined a strong narrative with factual interviews so that the reader is left to figure out what really happened.
The best parts of the book were the interviews with the people who say they actually had experienced an incident with the Mothman. Having read The Mothman Prophecies and remembering John Keel's interviews with the Scarberrys and the Mallettes, The Silver Bridge allows the reader to really understand their background as well as introducing a few new names into the frey, like Jimmi Jamieson and Frank Wentworth, both with their own Mothman experience. Whether the latter two people were real or composites, however, is anyone's guess.
Ambiguous, but highly enjoyable.

Fine literature and fascinating tales. Oct 22, 2009
By Ronald A. Bracale
"Ron"
This book is truly fine literature. It makes you feel what the times were like, both for Gray as he was investigating and also for the people he interviewed. The Mothman tales continue to this day, but Gray paints the initial series of events with words to express the horror and wonder which the events elicited. Rather than being a clinical research exposé, something much more valuable about the mysterious and its relation to the human condition. Somehow one is left with a belief that very strange happenings occurred and that the character of the people and places were involved.
