Top Secret/Majic: Operation Majestic-12 and the United States Government's UFO Cover-up [Paperback]

Stanton T. Friedman (Author), Whitley Strieber (Foreword)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 19, 2005

Top Secret/Majic is the result of nuclear physicist and renowned UFO investigator Stanton T. Friedman's twenty-one year search for the truth about the mysterious Operation Majestic 12, President Truman's top-secret UFO investigation team. In this updated edition of his landmark book, he tells the incredible tale of the July, 1947 recovery of a crashed flying saucer near Roswell, New Mexico, and the establishment by President Truman of a truly all-star cast to deal with the saucer and its non-human inhabitants. The first four Directors of Central Intelligence, the first Secretary of Defense, and several outstanding scientists and military leaders were part of the team. Through painstaking research and startling evidence—including documents that have never before been published—Friedman effectively exposes the U.S. government's biggest-kept secret: a fifty-eight year UFO cover-up.

This review is from: Top Secret/Majic: Operation Majestic-12 and the United States Government's UFO Cover-up (Paperback)

For those who read extensively in this area, Stanton Friedman is clearly the Einstein of the field. Not one to engage in unsupported speculation, Friedman approaches the MJ-12 question carefully, methodically, and with the highest standards of scholarship. When he doesn't know something, he clearly states it. When the evidence shows that something is likely, he explains why it's more likely than other explanations. In this book, Friedman tackles, among other topics, the amazing manuscript known as the Eisenhower Briefing Document, which, if legitimate, amounts to an admission by the U.S. government that UFOs are real and that their existence has been deliberately kept from the American public since at least the 1940s. Friedman argues masterfully in favor of the authenticity of this seminal UFO proof document. In my opinion, this is the best book out there about the so-called Majestic 12 documents.

Excellent book. After reading this book, it looks like there are no good arguments against the validity of the Majestic Documents. The book is very well written and reveals many facts about debunkers. Very good appendices also.

This review is from: Top Secret/Majic: Operation Majestic-12 and the United States Government's UFO Cover-up (Paperback)

This book, is without a doubt, worth reading for anyone who is interested in UFOs and government conspiracies. I completely agree with the author that there is a "cosmic watergate" in place concerning the existence of flying saucers, as well as their occupants, and the recovery of both. This book is a great read the clearly lays out the history of the Majestic 12 documents and their authenticity, multiple flying saucer crashes/recoveries and the on-going lie that is being told to all of mankind regarding our reality.
