5.0 out of 5 stars Must read for all UFO enthusiasts., August 1, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Beyond Roswell: The Alien Autopsy Film, Area 51, & the U.S. Government Coverup of Ufo's (Hardcover)

Much of the chronology associated with the Roswell Incident and related UFO information can be found in other books. This book treats the same things in more detail and includes the statements by others involved, that I have never seen before. Furthermore, many photos are present here not found in other writings. The key question surrounding this whole incident can be condensed into one question: Are extraterrestrials real and is there tangible evidence that they were/are here, and if so why the extraordinary secrecy surrounding it? The author, in my estimation, has made a very strong case, and supplied the supporting evidence that such and event(s) have/has indeed occurred, and continues to happen.
Originally, the secrecy is understandable in that the military was confronted with a true dilemma in that the intentions of the "creatures" was indeed unknown and they obviously had a technology far beyond our own. By comparison of our newly developed nuclear weapons, of that era, with the technology they had at their disposal to offer/or use against us paled in contrast. Belligerent behavior on their part was not apparent; apparently such a position has not been demonstrated in the interim, at least in-so-far as information available to the writers and researchers. Robert Morning-Sky concludes the book with his impressions, perhaps as his intimate involvement with some retrieval efforts or his relationship and his brothers with an EBE, provided the account is true. We as a race of homo sapiens perhaps in some way were deceived or cheated, but history records our own barbarism toward our own kind. We probably are nowhere ready to accept other races of God's creation. We have much growth and development to undergo as evidenced by the daily stream of human failure promulgated by the news media.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb, August 2, 1997

This review is from: Beyond Roswell: The Alien Autopsy Film, Area 51, & the U.S. Government Coverup of Ufo's (Hardcover)

This is the most complete attempt to syntheize the facts, the probable facts and the improbable facts into a self consistent model. There is an incredible amount of detail. It is well writtn, well researched and a joy to read. Even for those of us who are convinced that the "alien autopsy" is a hoax, this work may soften somewhat our stance on this issue

5.0 out of 5 stars Even better than Witness to Roswell, September 24, 2008

This review is from: Beyond Roswell: The Alien Autopsy Film, Area 51, & the U.S. Government Coverup of Ufos (Paperback)

I just recently (2008) purchased this book from Amazon.com, after reading Carey and Schmitt's Witness to Roswell. Carey and Schmitt's book is a truly convincing, and well-written, update on the Roswell crash, and I recommend it highly. But, I was very surprised to find this book by Hesemann and Mantle (Beyond Roswell) that was written about 10 years earlier and which contained a lot of the SAME witness accounts that one finds in Carey and Schmitt. In addition, Hesemann/Mantle present convincing research and testimonials about the "OTHER" Roswell crash that took place on May 31, 1947 (SW of Socorro), as well as about the Santilli "Alien Autopsy" film. Rather than give my reactions here to what these authors have written, I would prefer that YOU get ahold of this book and read what Hesemann and Mantle have discovered. I cannot imagine that you would find his book to be anything less than amazing and thoroughly convincing.

Mr. Hesemann interviewed the Native American Robert Morning Sky for this book, as Mr. Morning Sky claims that his grandfather had contact with one of the "aliens" who managed to escape from the crash that took place on May 31, 1947. Morning Sky's comments about the Santilli "Alien Autopsy" film are very revealing (pp. 235-236):

"Whereas we, and other Native Americans, know about the authenticity of Santilli's film [as the "alien" on the autopsy table was identical in appearance to the "Star Elder" who escaped the crash site], we believe that in the end it will be proved that the material is fake. The UFO believers have to be discredited, the contents of the film must be drawn through the mud. The "powers that be" have to keep their control over the people. I don't know how it will be done, but the film will be, has to be, exposed as a fake."

It is also interesting, and PAINFUL, to be told by an eyewitness to the May, 1947 crash that our military treated the aliens very roughly, and that one alien might even have been shot in the head (page 202, per Prof. Ballone).

Please buy this book and broaden your perspective on the whole "Roswell Incident."
