The Roswell Incident [Hardcover]

Charles Berlitz (Author), William L. Moore (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 1997

The Roswell Incident was the most important UFO encounter of our century. But the facts about the incident are still being hidden from the American public. This groundbreaking book not only explores every aspect of the mysterious UFO crash near Roswell, New Mexico, but also probes the bizarre government cover-up that began within hours of the discovery and has continued right up to the present day.

Amazon.com Review

The crash of a flying disk near Roswell, New Mexico is the landmark event in UFO history, yet there is no concrete proof of any extraterrestrial presence at the site. Charles Berlitz and William Moore adamantly maintain that the evidence does exist, but is buried under lies and threats from the United States government. While I have to reserve judgment, I am fascinated by the chain of evidence presented in this book, which is something of a sacred text in UFOology. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

By A Customer

This review is from: The Roswell Incident (Paperback)

The facts are unbelievable.Why do not the people in U.S. have a concensus on this issue.I mean force the government to comeout with everything about the classified information which concerns the public.But the fact which leaves a reader to think why all the ufo sightings are made in US or russia why not elsewhere?? Any work on other parts of the world. I congratulate both the authors for this excellent work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unfortunately much evidence is kept secret..., October 12, 2000

This review is from: The Roswell Incident (Paperback)

Both authors have done splendid work in research of the most notorious UFO accident. The fact that it was the very first explains several "errors" that were made by the Army during processing. But because all artifacts have been securely removed, no one can really verify the existence of aliens in military labs or any detail about the vessel. Everything is spread by words of eyewitneses and through some inconsistence in Army documents.
Nevertheless have authors very carefully examined every document, picture and word avalaible and put it together into very understandable and also probable form. With such events happening you really cannot expect proofs flowing around, because this is too volatile topic to be publicly disclosed (due to various governments, of course). So for us it remains an entertainment through such books to enjoy the topic and think about in the "what if..." manner.

I have but one question. If a weather ballon fell in your back yard, do you think the military, then or now, would spend all the time, money and energy validating it?

Wouldn't it be very obvious it was a weather balloon? Why the secrecy? Why the blockades, the obvious panic displayed by the government?

It was apparant that balloons fell to the earth at this time, but there is not one case documented that the government went to such an EXTREME to note that it was a balloon and not an UFO.

Read the book and see what you see.
