From longtime Rolling Stone contributing editor and journalist Randall Sullivan, The Curse of Oak Island explores the curious history of Oak Island and the generations of individuals who have tried and failed to unlock its secrets.

In 1795, a teenager discovered a mysterious circular depression in the ground on Oak Island, in Nova Scotia, Canada, and ignited rumors of buried treasure. Early excavators uncovered a clay-lined shaft containing layers of soil interspersed with wooden platforms, but when they reached a depth of ninety feet, water poured into the shaft and made further digging impossible.

Since then the mystery of Oak Island's "Money Pit" has enthralled generations of treasure hunters, including a Boston insurance salesman whose obsession ruined him; young Franklin Delano Roosevelt; and film star Errol Flynn. Perplexing discoveries have ignited explorers' imaginations: a flat stone inscribed in code; a flood tunnel draining from a man-made beach; a torn scrap of parchment; stone markers forming a huge cross. Swaths of the island were bulldozed looking for answers; excavation attempts have claimed two lives. Theories abound as to what's hidden on Oak Island--pirates' treasure, Marie Antoinette's lost jewels, the Holy Grail, proof that Sir Francis Bacon was the true author of Shakespeare's plays--yet to this day, the Money Pit remains an enigma.

The Curse of Oak Island is a fascinating account of the strange, rich history of the island and the intrepid treasure hunters who have driven themselves to financial ruin, psychotic breakdowns, and even death in pursuit of answers. And as Michigan brothers Marty and Rick Lagina become the latest to attempt to solve the mystery, as documented on the History Channel's television show The Curse of Oak Island, Sullivan takes readers along to follow their quest firsthand.

Reliable comfortable stylish
Great product for the money.... Very solid!! Needs some breaking in but will definitely be more comfy after some weeks of consistent wear. Arch support is hard at first but once broken is feel nice. Great design and nice color way. Easy to keep clean. Would highly recommend. Great for house gym or light pool use.

Well made, with one issue
Size: 16 Women/15 Men, Color: Black/White/Black
Sandals are well made with nice arch support. Fit true to size (15). Only issue is that the front of each upper is thin and cuts into my skin just above the toes when bending the toes. No blood but a bit uncomfortable for long walks to and from the pool.

Super light and breathable, great for golf
Size: Medium, Color: White Golf Flag
I picked up the Obla Mens Golf Polo Shirt Dry Fit Performance and it’s been a great shirt for the course. The fabric is thin and stretchy, which makes it really comfortable and easy to move in. It breathes well, so you don’t feel overheated even when you’re out there for a while. Honestly, it’s so light it almost feels like you’re not wearing a shirt. The pattern looks great too, and the fit is on point, not too tight, not too loose. Pros: Lightweight and breathable Stretchy and comfortable Nice pattern/design Fits really well Cons: None so far Overall: Great golf shirt if you want something light and comfortable. Definitely one I’d pick up again

Attractive shirt and a great value
Size: X-Large, Color: Deep Purple Sunflower
Surprised by the quality. It looks more expensive than it was. It's an excellent value and fit perfectly. It's not boxy or sloppy, but looks trim and professional. The fabric is a perfect weight for Spring and Summer, and the colors and pattern are really nice. It laundered like a dream. With no shrinkage. This is versatile enough to wear on the golf course, or dressed up with a sport jacket over it. Great buy.
