UFOs and Aliens: The Complete Guidebook, by award-winning author-historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook, is the ultimate primer for beginners, an invaluable resource for veteran ufologists, and a one-of-a-kind work that's packed with just about everything you'll ever want to know about extraterrestrials and their out-of-this-world craft. Colonel Seabrook writes knowledgeably, with verve and clarity, making the journey through this complex topic both entertaining and educational. Well researched, the book includes detailed descriptions of UFOs and aliens, a history of UFOs, sixty-one real casebook studies, proof of the reality of UFOs, a list of NASA UFO images, chapters on alien abduction, cattle mutilations, crop circles, Men in Black, skeptics, becoming a ufologist, and the worldwide UFO coverup. Also included: suggested books, DVDs, organizations, and Websites, a UFO sighting form, a useful glossary, and more. Erin Ryder of the TV series Chasing UFOs and Destination Truth calls Colonel Seabrook's work: "A truly remarkable introduction to UFOs that transcends all other guidebooks in the genre!" If you're looking for something on UFOs that explains them away as weather balloons, space debris, birds, meteors, Chinese lanterns, light refractions, or secret experimental aircraft, this is not the book for you. Having had his own UFO sightings, Colonel Seabrook respects his topic, writing with the enthusiasm of an open-minded believer rather than with the close-minded bias of a debunker. Still, his approach is essentially scientific, a refreshing point of view that only adds to the academic value of this engaging and enlightening work. A complete guidebook in every sense of the word, this is a must-have for anyone - particularly those new to the subject - who is looking for an affordable one-volume book that explores all facets of the UFO phenomenon. Available in paperback and hardcover. The Foreword is by Nick Pope, the "Real Fox Mulder," Head of the British Government's UFO Project 1991-1994, and author of Open Skies, Closed Minds. Back cover blurbs are by nuclear physicist Stanton T. Friedman (author of Crash At Corona: The U.S. Military Retrieval and Cover-Up of a UFO), UFO authority Timothy Good (author of Above Top Secret: The Worldwide UFO Cover-up), and naval physicist Dr. Bruce Maccabee (author of UFOs Are Real, Here's the Proof). Acclaimed neo-Victorian scholar Lochlainn Seabrook (CE1 and CE4), author of the bestseller The Martian Anomalies: A Photographic Search for Intelligent Life on Mars, and whose literary works range from astronomy to zoology, is one of the most prolific and popular writer-historians in the world today. A descendant of the families of Alexander H. Stephens, John S. Mosby, Edmund W. Rucker, and William Giles Harding, he is known by literary critics as the "new Shelby Foote" and the "American Robert Graves," and by his fans as the "Voice of the Traditional South." A Kentucky Colonel and a recipient of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal, he is currently the author and editor of nearly 100 educationally enlightening books for all ages. Described by his readers as "game changers" and "life-altering," his voluminous writings have introduced hundreds of thousands to vital facts that have been left out of our mainstream books. A 7th generation Kentuckian of Appalachian heritage and the 6th great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford, Col. Seabrook has a 45-year background in American and Southern history, and is the author of the international blockbuster Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask a Southerner! His other titles include: Seabrook's Bible Dictionary of Traditional and Mystical Doctrines; Christmas Before Christianity; Jesus and the Law of Attraction.
