Alien Base is another excellent well written book by my favourite alien researcher author
Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2019Verified Purchase
Alien Base (1998) is an excellent book that goes well with Timothy's other excellent book Earth: An Alien Enterprise (2013). While retaining an open and critical mind about the cases he presents, he writes carefully and documents well with an appropriate mix of paraphrasing and quotation of original source material. Timothy is my number 1 author on the subject of aliens and UFOs. Other authors lack the professionalism that Timothy uses. His books contain an abundance of good interesting material (not repeating the same content and not just reporting objects moving about in the sky). Especially good is his selection of material where he documents what the aliens say and what they look like and what they actually do. I love all Timothy's books. They are money well spent buying. Whatever the highest rating Amazon has to offer, I will assign the highest to Timothy. He could actually teach other authors on how to write. Thank you Timothy for providing such valuable books as these two that I mention here (the only two of yours that I've purchased so far.) They have provided an abundance of useful content to think about.

As a UFO enthusiast who has read many books on the subject, I found this book full of fascinating and obscure material that was new to me which made for page turning reading indeed! Lots of little known and bizarre encounters are told about along with a re-examination of the contactee cases of the 1950s, with surprising results. The author argues there might be more than a grain of truth in many of these cases that have been too easily dismissed, perhaps, by the majority of UFO researchers. It is a controversial opinion to be sure, but well argued and thought provoking by author Timothy Good. I thought this book was captivating, and that it is a must read for the hard core UFO aficionados out there. Or for anyone with an open mind who is interested in the UFO phenomenon!

It was pretty well done. Lots and lots of documented incidents. I wish he would give more of his opinion as to what is going on and why. I know some people don't like opinions and they appreciate "just the facts." I however would like to hear from someone who's spent so much time out in the field and doing research to speak their mind, and give us their thoughts as to why all of these UFO/Alien incidents are happening.

This is a great book. I’ve enjoyed reading this book. Even if you don’t believe some of these accounts, it’s still fun to consider that maybe there is some bit of truth there.

What makes Timothy Good's "Alien Base" interesting is that he presenting some background history on alien contact that isn't limited to the usual Grey alien abduction orthodoxy that has dominated contact cases here in US for the last 30 years with the occasional mention of reptilians. Good goes thru a selection of cases from around the world presenting different types of contacts and in some cases different messages from the aliens.
The main reason I picked up the book had to do with Carroll Wayne Watts' contacts in the late 1960s in Texas. I could remember seeing some photos by Carroll at that time that were neat looking but then later hearing that they hoaxed. Thirty one years later, Good's book is the first written information I've seen concerning this incident. Good explains the incidents, the contacts, and the bad things that happened to Carroll after the incident s that led him to publicly declare his encounters a hoax so the attacks would stop. That's why the incident disappeared from UFO lore. It is a small section of the book but it has alien contact, MIB's (frat boys/FBI types), and other bizarre things. I had thought it was only photographs. Apparently Kevin Randle will have some comments about the Carroll Watts in an upcoming book. I can't wait to see what his analysis of the incident is. He seems to have found out that the imposter Mel Noel injected himself into Carroll Watts's situation at the time.
The contentious part of the book has to do with Contactee's, notably George Adamski. Today the 1950's contactee's are pretty much immediately dismissed in UFO lore. Yes, Adamski was a scamming bootlegger and Good points that out but he also focuses on the situations where there were other people involved in the sightings by Adamski and photos of similar flying saucers like the Darbishire and Vega photos (there is a picture by Adamski of a saucer with a dent in the rim of it which is rarely seen anywhere). I don't remember if Good mentions James Moseley and Gray Barker pranking Adamski with a forged letter on federal government stationary and Adamski using the letter as evidence of US government connections . Good covers Adamski pointing out his many facets.
Overall "Alien Base" presents cases that aren't discussed in modern UFO lore and gives a stranger picture of the phenomena than the current orthodoxy. The Lorenzen's put out several paperbacks in the 1960's and 1970's on contacts showing the wide range of alien types and Randle has written one too. A question for the future, will Abductee cases be dismissed like Contactee cases are today?
Good always seems to just put whatever information he has in front of the reader and leaves it to them to discern what the veracity is and what is going on so it is worth a read.

Great Book! I enjoyed very much the professional asceptic way of writing. The author (a Professional and very well known Ufo investigator Timothy Good) use each phrase and word to present lots of cases in an extremely impartial way. The reader can take her/his own conclusions with total freedom! If you are a UFO enthusiast, you may already know some of the cases, but even though Good, manages to present new details!
Highly recomended!
