Fifty Years of UFOs Book

Marking the 50th anniversary of the first sighting, two international experts present a definitive study of the UFO phenomenon. Handsomely designed in a large format with 75 photos. Fifty years ago, a sighting in Washington State led to the coining of the phrase, ``flying saucer.'' It marked the beginning of research into a phenomenon that has gripped the public imagination for half a century. Now, with access to research material from around the world, John and Anne Spencer have written the ultimate UFO survey. Arranged by decade and set in cultural and social perspective, the book highlights the most important developments in each period--from the first reports of UFOs to alien sightings, claims of abductions, religious cults, crash retrievals, and the emergence of witness support groups. John Spencer is Chairman of the British UFO Research Association. He is the author of Phenomenon and Perspectives as well as the co-author, with Anne Spencer, of the Encyclopedia of Ghosts and Spirits and Poltergeist Phenomenon. 192 pp 8 1/2 x 11 75 color & b/w photos & illustrationsRead More
