Earlier this year Annie Jacobsen's book Area 51: An Uncensored History of America's Top Secret Military Base drew groans from skeptics and believers alike who derided her claim that the infamous 1947 Roswell crash was really a spy plane sent by Joseph Stalin, piloted by “alien-like children” created by Nazi doctor Josef Mengele? intended to create a mass panic about an alien invasion.

The story was based entirely on one anonymous source without a shred of supporting evidence, which is not unheard of among UFO reports. UFO enthusiasts who prefer some documentation with their speculation might prefer journalist Leslie Kean's recent book UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record.

If you read one book on the UFO phenomenon, this is the book to read. Leslie Kean has done a magnificent job in detailing some of the most compelling and unsolved UFO sightings. I can't recommend this book more highly.  To read the rest of the article, click here.
