UFO Witness Sightings
Almost daily all over the world, accounts of UFO sightings, close encounters with ufonauts and even claims of alien abduction are reported. But far from being a recent phenomenon, research shows that inexplicable objects had been seen in Earth’s skies for thousands of years.
Yet controversy still rages over UFOs. Many people refuse to believe that UFO reports are anything more than hoaxes, hallucinations or merely the results of human error. And until now an objective, historical single volume catalogue of UFO sightings has not previously been available to the general public. Now, at last, readers can make up their own minds about the true nature of the UFO phenomenon.
UFO Witness Sightings describes hundreds of UFO reports in chronological order from ancient Egypt to the present day. All the landmark cases are included, such as the 1961 Betty and Barney abduction claim and the Trindade Island photographs. Illustrated with more than 350 colour and black-and-white photographs and artworks, UFO Witness Sightings is written by a UFO expert and will appeal to anyone interested in the world of the unexplained.
