In the Autumn of 2016, the CIA released a cache of electronic files previously released under the Freedom of Information Act but housed at the National Archives. Among a variety of subjects were "unidentified flying objects." Finally, a stockpile of reports and correspondences were available for serious UFO researchers to examine at home.This book consists of selections from those secret files. I spent months selecting, editing, and organizing the files and stories that are relevant to UFO research and has produced a chronological collection of CIA documents spanning 1949 to 2000.Each chapter focuses on a particular event. They contain the historical and cultural context for the document summaries and examine other sightings and contacts that are not mentioned in the CIA files.Among the fascinating tidbits are: A memo to J Edgar Hoover about flying saucer reportsThe 1949 conference at Los Alamos that include Edward Teller, upper atmosphere physicist Dr. Joseph Kaplan, and other renowned scientists in which the participants debated whether recent incidents were natural phenomena or UFO sightingsThis is a must-have book for those fascinated by the history of UFO sightings and those interested in government secrets and cover-ups
