November’s Books

"Saucer attack!" is a eye-opening and fun book. "Saucers came into the public psyche at a time of great tension and paranoia in America. People feared 'the Bomb' and communist infiltration."

The first "sighting" of a flying saucer occurred in June 1947, and by 1950 books were published and a film called "The flying saucer" had been released. George Adamski and Buck Nelson had gained notoriety for their stories of contacts with alien beings.

This book has fantastic color reproductions of some great UFO art. Covers from magazines, posters from such films as "Invasion of the saucer-men," "It conquered the world" and "The thing." Great fun!
