Description
The government says it needs Area 51 to protect the USA. They say they need it for research. Now some say it has all been a terrible lie. In the annals of UFO controversies there has never been a place like this: 60 square miles of desert & scrub just north of Las Vegas, NV. Officially known as a US Air Force testing ground, this area has accounted for more UFO sightings & more inexplicable activity than any other, leading experts to dub Area 51 "Earth's unofficial UFO headquarters." Now UFO writer Wright seeks to answer the riddle once & for all, delving into previously secret government documents, drawing on eyewitness accounts & ripping the veil of secrecy off Area 51 & the research that really goes on there. The result is the most shocking & thoroughly documented UFO book ever, a book that demonstrates that for 50 years the government has had one overriding policy on Area 51: whenever confronted with suspicions, facts or photographs--conceal, deny & lie.
