The Shadow of Roswell: Crashes, Cover-Ups and Conspiracies, Part One - Mysterious Universe

Micah Hanks examines the baleful influence that the 1947 Roswell episode--whatever its actual cause--still exerts upon UFO investigations. In his "Part One" Hanks relates an all-too-familiar personal example of perhaps "willful belief" mixed with a certain "logic" he thinks sprang from the Roswell aftermath. In The Shadow of Roswell: Crashes, Cover-Ups and Conspiracies, Part Two Hanks notes how "enthusiasm has certainly dwindled over time," even among some of its leading researchers, for this once most iconic of UFO cases. Hanks argues for the rectitude of reexamining hoary old favorites and despairs that "aspiring ufologists who jump in the game at a much later time" may just muddy the timeworn waters more. Well, Nick Redfern is no upstart, so let's see why he calls The Pascagoula UFO Incident: An Important Book. Nick spent considerable time with the surviving member of that 1973 Mississippi abduction event and is seriously impressed both with the man and his story. Nick points out that what Calvin Parker has written sets whatever happened on the abortive fishing evening into a lifelong context, reminding us once again that UFO encounters, whatever else they comprehend, change lives. So, too, did The Bizarre Case of Russia's Kyshtym Being. Not "iconic" or even very well-known, and perhaps not even UFO-related at all, this strange story contains elements reflective of Hanks' observations of UFO case investigations. At the very least it is, if not apocryphal, extremely sad and a reminder that we do live in a very Mysterious Universe. (WM)
