5.0 out of 5 stars
Absolutely Fascinating!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Destination Earth: A History of Alleged Alien Presence (Paperback)
Alan Baker covers just about every side of ufology, obviously well thought out and researched. This book is what really got me into the subject of alien encounters and abductions, and it's a great intro to anyone just getting into the idea of ufos and aliens. A definite must-read!

Great Read,
This review is from: Destination Earth: A History of Alleged Alien Presence (Paperback)
I thought Baker covered every aspect of the unexplained extremely well, with just the facts. The rest is left up to you.

4.0 out of 5 stars
A page-turning overview of high strangeness,
By A Customer
This review is from: Destination Earth: A History of Alleged Alien Presence (Paperback)
Mr. Baker's historical overview of "alleged alien presence" on Earth is a compelling read. He not only covers the early "contactees" and standard human-alien abduction scenerio(and basically dismisses the entire phenomenon as mass fantasizing based on science fiction tropes), but also delves into the high strangeness world of alien underground bases, human-alien hybridization, the Philadelphia Experiment/Montauk Project, the Illuminati, alien bases on the Moon, genetically engineered human slave laborers on the moon and Mars, you-name-it bizarro wackiness. If its out there Mr. Baker reports on it. Although Mr. Baker strives for objective reportage, he often can't help but come across as skeptical (hence the word "alleged" in the title). His explaination (such as it is) for much of what passes as "the abduction experience" is chalked up to the fantasizing of the mythopoetic faculty of the imagination; an explaination that begs the question in light of the vast amount of still and video evidence that supports the contention that something strange is happening in the skies. Evidence that is simply not in the purvue of this book, and which, I think, is a glaring omission. While I cringed at times at his dubious connections and skepticism masquarading as objectivity, Mr. Baker has nonetheless written a compellingly interresting book. Anyone seeking a peek at the history of alien wierdness should read this (and then maybe go out and mow the lawn).
