Disappointed
I got this book thinking it would be another book on alien agendas, coverups, abductions; the works. What I got instead is a book full of pages where it looked like someone's college notes that were published as a book! Other than that, the book arrived on time and seems to be in good condition. I thought I was getting a good deal for the price, but now I know why it came so cheap! Maybe I misread the description of the book, but it will be something sitting on my bookcase, cause I won't be reading it any time soon!
Nice introduction to some of the more intriguing encounters
While there are no earth-shattering revelations presented in this work, it does cover some of the most interesting and unexplainable encounters in the modern history of ufo phenomena. Fortunately, the author minimizes personal conjecture and relays facts surrounding the incidents. The book's title led me to believe that it was connected to the recent document compiled and presented to major governments and world leaders. However, while that document is mentioned in passing, there is apparently no connection. I don't believe there is anything here for the avid UFO enthusiast or researcher, but it is a well-presented work for the uninitiated without the "way out there" conjecture common to so many books on this subject.
Worth Reading
New frontiers and new incidents brought to the map. Similar in essence to already available books on the subject, however the presentation is responsible and more comprehensive. Solid evidence? Yes. Something totally new? NO. Worth reading? Absolutely!
Micah Wright is a Liar
Micah Wright was never a Ranger. He never served in the armed forces at all. His whole career is based on a complete lie. He has zero credibility and you should keep that in mind when reading this book.
fictionalized bio may be part of the point! duh!
To the people complaining that he "made up" his military past: Did it occur to you that maybe that's PART OF THE POINT?! To fictionalize/shroud his character, as an added element that brings further meaning to his work! Lots of artists do that sort of thing, & have perfect creative license to do so. (It's not like he was running for office, here, folks.)...No one seems to have a problem with Banksy's "mysterious" existence; Andy Kaufman's entire career was based on us not ever really knowing who he was (and sometimes having OTHER people portray him/his characters); we went crazy with glee when Sasha Baron Cohen passed himself off to unsuspecting "regular folk" as Borat/Ali G/Bruno/etc. I can't speak for this artist, but I presume the "biography" is part of the art, and, besides, if you remove the knowledge of the artist, the work is still pretty great & speaks for itself!
Totally Bogus
Micah Wright admits to lying about being a Ranger, fighting in Panama and many other things. Check out his web site: (http://www.micahwright.com/ranger.htm). He made the whole thing up!So why should anything else he says or writes have any value?
