The Flying Saucers Are Real

by Donald Keyhoe


Preface from Sacred-Text.com

This was one of the first books published about the UFO phenomena. We
are fortunate that it ended up in the public domain.

It is a template for much of what would follow: the paranoia, the
government disinformation, the inescapable conclusion that the saucers
are not of this earth. Keyhoe, with his spare, matter of fact writing
style, which also conveys a profound sense of wonder, has to be the
prototype for the deadpan Fox Mulder of the X-Files.

On one hand we can see the birth of a key modern mythology. On the
other, there is a body of almost naive evidence in this text
unpolluted by that very mythology. The case studies are real. The
witnesses were highly reliable. These cases are still unexplained.
