Flying Saucers - Serious Business is a fun and entertaining read, complete with pictures. Clear, concise reading that tackles specific incidents in history, such as the Brazil 1954 incident, power blackouts in the Southwest in 1965, etc. Interesting read!

This review is from: Flying Saucers--Serious Business (Paperback)

First of all, what's wrong with trying to sell books by writing material of interest to the intended audience? That's what all authors do.

Second, this was one of many books written about UFOs during the sixties and certainly is one of the better ones. Edwards tends to just present the facts of the cases as he knows them and leaves out all the mystical mumbo jumbo present in many other author's UFO books.

It's up to the reader to decide whether he wants to accept any of the cases as possible genuine evidence of an extraterrestial presence, but in any case it's a fun read which allows for some moments of suspension of disbelief. Besides, how often do you get a chance to buy a book for one penney?

I found this book at a library sale for 10 cents. And, I was quite impressed with the book. Edwards presents the case for UFOs and he does it based on facts from the Air Force, newspapers, and eye witness accounts. He doesn't speculate as to what the UFOs are - he lets the facts speak for themselves as they are presented. As a result, his material appears to be well founded and his writing style is very readable. Certainly a thought provoking book!
