Meaning and background
The story behind Jadoo
Jadoo has a literary association with John A. Keel's first book, published in 1957 and reissued by Anomalist Books in 2013. The publisher presents it as an account of Keel's travels and investigations. This is useful context for someone drawn to unusual books or mysterious adventures; the book title alone does not establish the history of Jadoo as a personal name.
