Like his predecessor, Heinrich Harrer, who spent seven years in Tibet, Hartwig Hausdorf has ventured, virtually on foot, over many of the sacred places of the Far East. But his aim has been not to... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I enjoyed this book a lot. So did my non-UFO-interested girlfriend, which surprised me. Hartwig spins a great tale of mystery and adventure, enough to hook just about anybody.Whether all of it is "fact", I don't know, but this reads like a fantastic true-life Indiana Jones meets X-FILES and that was enough for me. Also, very little of this material is covered in other UFO books, so it was refreshing to find such a wealth of possibilities.
A must read for anyone even mildly interested in UFOs!

For this lifelong believer that humanity has always been observed by advanced off-world intelligences, a doorway was opened into ancient vistas never before glimpsed. CHINESE ROSWELL is a translation into English of a German text by Hartwig Hausdorf that clearly and concisely describes his investigations into unexplained mysteries of the Far East. Hausdorf's fascinating descriptions include unusually marked stone disks found in the Bayan Kara Ula Mountains, the probable existence of Shangri-La, a 1,000 foot white pyramid in Xian, the origins of the mythology of great winged dragons, and modern day sightings of possible extraterrestial craft. If it is true that Alien Mind(s) have long been present on Earth, this is the most astounding overlooked fact in human history. One of the great benefits of modern trends in literature/journalism is that a treasure trove of vital information is readily available to anyone who wishes to expand his/her knowledge of extraterrestrial impact on human civilization (and it is difficult to imagine anyone who would not). CHINESE ROSWELL is an important addition to that growing collection.
An excellent book covering important UFO material.

The Chinese Roswell by Hartwig HausdorfTrans. by E. Mathaey & W. Smith New Paradigm Books 22783 South State Rd. 7 € Suite 97 Boca Raton, FL 33428 Softcover; $13.95; 224 pages ISBN: 1-892138-00XReviewed by Berthold E. Schwarz, M.D. Review published in Alternate Perceptions Winter 1999, #45 The more ancient, remote, and populous Far East including China, Japan, Tibet, India, and surrounding countries have rich traditions in their history, myths, and geopolitics for UFOs. In many instances venerable texts and writings can easily be extrapolated to the Western world and our era. In both cases ‹ past and present, East and West ‹ the twain exists and transcends the specific cultural and ethnic religious differences. Hartwig Hausdorf, like his famous and admired predecessor Nicholas Roerich ‹ artist, explorer, guru ‹ has traveled to these exotic lands, and, in some cases, to mysterious and impenetrable locations to witness, study, and learn all he can about various UFO experiences and encounters and their possible relationships to ancient monuments, pyramids, and archaeological artifacts. He provides a wide-angle overview of the UFO enigma. Although espousing the ET hypothesis, he does not let this viewpoint cloud his vision and exclude geographic and Fortean shreds of data that are challenging to the reader/researcher; he successfully penetrates the armor of 'think alike' mentation. He has a knack of presenting disparate material in a highly readable form that is highlighted by his free thinking questions and care in separating 'soft' from 'hard' data. He offers probing scholarship and leaves the reader more curious than ever about this most baffling phenomena that arches from the 'nuts and bolts' to the sometimes esoteric, recondite paranormal and, in many cases, the inextricable and inexplicable elements of the 'people part' of the equation: the always to be considered and never to be discounted parapsychological aspects. For all who wonder and desire to expand their vision about the origin, purpose, meaning, and understanding of the UFO problem, The Chinese Roswell by Hartwig Hausdorf is indispensable reading.
