Exposed, Uncovered & Declassified: UFOs and Aliens - Is There Anybody Out There?

98650585For many years people have been fascinated and interested in anything dealing with UFO’s and aliens. Who doesn’t want to believe that we are not alone in the vast universe? Many people who gravitate to these subjects also “believe” or maybe a better word is “hope” that alien visitors are watching over us and will step-in and save us from ourselves.

If you ever wanted to attend a UFO round table, where you could ask a question to various experts in the field and get their ideas and insights about UFO’s and alien contact, then this book is for you. Some of the experts and their ideas include:

Nuclear physicist and world-renowned UFO expert Stanton T. Friedman discusses how close we really are to interstellar travel.

Nick Pope, former member of the British Ministry of Defence, covers the latest UFO documents released by the UK’s National Archives, including such fascinating information as: what Churchill knew, why the documents are being released now, what’s in them, and what’s still being withheld.

Donald Schmitt, the former co-director of the J. Allen Hynek Center for UFO Studies, takes on the aftermath of the Roswell incident, discussing in detail the initial stages of the government’s cover-up attempts.

Air Force veteran Thomas J. Carey chronicles the military’s attempts to intimidate people into not telling their stories about what they have seen with their own eyes.

The niece of Betty and Barney Hill, Kathleen Marden, gives a short history of cases of alien abduction, many which continue to baffle the American public and UFO investigators alike.

Nick Redfern provides a fresh take on the famous 1953 UFO crash in Kingman, Arizona, and explores its possible connection to a government program to reverse-engineer alien spacecraft.

I enjoyed this book very much. I learned some new things about UFO’s that I hadn’t heard before, and because the book is a collection of essays from the various experts, it held my interest easily. This book covers it all from UFO craft, Alien Abduction to Ancient Astronaut theories involving genetic manipulation. Good stuff!

Meet the Editors:

Michael Pye has been an acquisitions editor for New Page Books since 2003. He developed a healthy appetite for the unexplained by watching far too many episodes of In Search Of hosted by Leonard Nimoy after school instead of doing his homework, which turned him into a reader of books on the strange and unexplained. He earned a BA in English from Southern Connecticut State University.

Kirsten Dalley has functioned in various editorial capacities at New Page Books since 2004. She is coauthor of The Nightmare Encyclopedia, along with Jeff Belanger. She graduated from Columbia University with a BA in comparative literature, which has proven to be of use in both her career and her leisure pursuits (reading fiction and riding sportbikes).
