   I have added various comments about the books that I got from the UFO
bibliography that is available on the net.  Lots of the books in this
collection were not in that bibliography.  Hope this helps people out.

   We recently acquired a large UFO collection. Lots of books from the 50s
and 60s, many of them hardcover. It is the largest UFO collection that I
had seen and I once belonged to a UFO club in El Paso (near Roswell, ok
nearer to Soccoro). There were ove 120 books, but some have sold before I
could put this catalog together. If you have questions about any of the
books, please ask. This catalog was a rush job (please excuse the typos)
and I am sure that I missed items. 

   Shipping costs depend on the amount of books and whether you want air or
surface, but they are reasonable. We take VISA/MC, AMEX, NOVUS/Discover,
checks, money orders, etc. 


   Take a look and let us hear from you before the Men in Black take them
all away.

Charles Berlitz & William L. Moore
Roswell Incident, Grosset & Dunlap, $30, 1980, 1st ed, hardback 
   Keith Rowell: The facts about the crash of a saucer in the
      summer of 1947 in New Mexico and how the US government
      covered it up.
   Charles McGrew:  Mr. Berlitz is a well-known teller of
      tales, including Bermuda Triangle and others.
      However, it would appear that at least some of
      this is right.  ("UFO Crash at Roswell" is
      the better book on this.)  It has recently
      been reissued in papaerback.


Howard Blum
Out There, Simon & Schuster, $15, 1990, hardback, 1st ed 
   tclark@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu (Terry Clark): Mr. Blum mainly
      weaves a tale of how he used his "sources" to track
      the Pentagon's establishment of a UFO working group.
      He pads out a big chunk of the books middle with a
      re-telling of the SETI project.  Pretty much a
      yawn-er, 2 starships on a scale of five.
   Keith Rowell:  An important book since it is written by a
      former NY Times reporter who has written two other
      influential books -- one about Nazi intelligence
      officers brought to America illegally after WWII and
      the other about the Walker spy case.  However, Blum's
      UFO book was apparently hastily done and, thus,
      somewhat of a disappointment in the UFO research
      community.
   Charles McGrew:  very readable book (the above comment about
      padding is correct, though the padding makes good
      reading anyway, if you're interested in the early
      history of the SETI project.)  Details Bill
      Moore's shenanigans on behalf of AFOSI, and the
      story of how the MJ-12 documents came to light
      (there may be a veiled punnic reference to its
      source, by referring to the source as a "Good
      Samaritan" =?= Timothy Good?)

Ed Conroy
Report On Communion, Avon, $5, 1990, paperback 
   Keith Rowell:  This journalist was a boyhood
      acquaintance of Strieber. When Strieber published
      Communion, Conroy decided to see if his story would
      hold up under an investigative journalist's scrutiny.
      Conroy says yes.

   Charles McGrew: The famous collector of "strange-but-true"
      stories has had a book reprinted (written before his famous
      "Flying Saucers - Serious Business") in paperback.  Most of
      this is not ufo-related, but there are some things that
      impinge on it.

Frank Edwards
Stranger Than Science, Ace, $8, 1962, paperback 

Frank Edwards
Stranger Than Science, Bantam, $8, 1967, paperback 

Robert Emenegger
UFOs, Past, Present & Future, Ballantine, $3, paperback 
   Keith Rowell: Good general book.  Emenegger produced a film
      documentary of the same name.  The US government
      hinted that it would give him some "real" flying
      saucer footage for inclusion in his film.  This didn't
      happen.

Lawrence Fawcett & Barry J. Greenwood
UFO Cover-Up, Prentice-Hall, $10, Original Title: Clear Intent, 1984, trade
paperback
   Keith Rowell: Very important book summarizing what ufologists
      know from studying the thousands of FOIA-released
      government UFO documents.  Everything but proof of
      crashed flying saucers is here, and it's all from
      FOIA-released documents!
   Charles McGrew: Well, I wouldn't go that far, but it *does*
      make for very informative reading.  Fills in a lot
      of gaps in what the government has been doing over
      the UFO question (as it turns out, a *lot*).  Good
      narration, good bibliography.  This is from CAUS,
      (whom Klass has dumped on a lot), and is a fine
      bit of investigation.

Timothy Good
Above Top Secret: The Wordwide UFO Cover-Up, Morrow, $25, 1988, hardback, 1st US
   Keith Rowell: The most important book about the on-going
      government cover-up.
   Charles McGrew:  A bit rambling, but includes lots of
      very good information.  Certainly a "must-read".

Timothy Good
Alien Contact: Top-Secret UFO Files Revealed, Morrow, $15, 1993, 
Original Title: Alien Liason, hardback, 1st US 
   Keith Rowell: A reliable introduction to the wilder tales
      circulating in the UFO subculture in the 70s, 80s, and
      90s. The bizarre nature of what is known makes a
      prudent investigator reluctant to throw out any
      information. Some of this will turn out to be true
      after it is put through the academic mill in the 1990s
      and beyond. Not for the timid or intellectually rigid.

Budd Hopkins
Intruders: Incredible Visitations At Copley Woods, Random House, $20, 1987,
hardback
   Keith Rowell: Hopkins' second book.  He says it is likely that
      aliens are mixing our genes with theirs, and this is a
      major purpose of the abductions.

J. Allen Hynek, Philip Imbrogno & Bob Pratt 
Night Siege: The Hudson Valley UFO Signethtings, Ballantine, $3, paperback 
   Keith Rowell: About the early 1980s boomerang UFO flap
      involving thousands of sightings.
   Charles McGrew: This is Dr. Hynek's last book.  Unfortunately,
      he died while it was being prepared.  A great loss
      to the UFO movement.

J. Allen Hynek
UFO Experience: A Scientific Inquiry, Regnery, $20, 1972, hardback 
   Keith Rowell: The father of modern ufology writes a solid book
      about the subject.

Donald E. Keyhoe
Aliens From Space: Real Story Of UFOs, Doubleday, $20, 1973, hardback, 1st ed 
   Keith Rowell: Keyhoe says the US government has crashed
      saucers and alien bodies.  He's probably right. The
      last of Keyhoe's five books about UFOs.

Kevin D. Randle
UFO Casebook, Warner Books, $3, 1989, paperback, 1st ed 
   Charles McGrew: Chock-full of information about famous UFO
      cases from 1947 to the 1989.  Some cases are shown to
      be non-real, some to be perhaps-real, and some that may
      need re-examination.  Mr. Randle has done an execllent
      job of research, looking into Bluebook files, newpaper
      records, interviewing witnesses, and analyzing cases.
      If you're just starting out in UFOlogy, this is an
      excellent book to "jumpstart" you.

Kevin D. Randle & Doanld R. Schmidt
UFO Crash At Roswell, 1991, Avon, $3
   Keith Rowell: The authors don't back down. They say they have
      proved beyond a reasonable doubt that a flying saucer
      -- not a UFO -- crashed in NM in the summer of 1947.
      Get off your duff.  Prove them wrong!
   Charles McGrew: Not suberbly written, but nevertheless
      impelling.  Very thorough research.

Jenny Randles
UFO Conspiracy: The First Forty Years, Blandford, $15, 1989, trade paperback

Report On Unidentified Flying Objects, Doubleday, $30, 1956, hardback, 
1st ed w/o later debunking chapters, Sans DJ 
   Keith Rowell: Written by a former head of the AF's Project
      Blue Book public relations UFO effort.  "Brand New
      Enlarged Edition Latest, Up-to-the-minute Facts on
      UFO!" on dust jacket.  No indication whatsoever inside
      the new edition that it differs from the earlier
      edition by the addition of three extra (debunking)
      chapters.  Without the dust jacket you would never
      know there are two distinct editions of this classic
      UFO book.  Some UFO researchers speculate that the Air
      Force/CIA was displeased enough with Ruppelt's pro-UFO
      first edition that they made him include the last
      three chapters in the "new edition"!

Carl Sagan & Thornton Page
UFO's: A Scietific Debate, Cornell Univ Press, $25, 1975, hardback 
   Keith Rowell: Appeared shortly after the Condon Committee
      Report said once again that saucers don't exist so
      they won't be studied by science.  UFO proponents,
      debunkers, and honest skeptics have their say here.

Communion, Morrow, $8, 1987, hardback, 1st ed 
   Keith Rowell: Bestselling book by previously bestselling
      author.  It's about his probable abductions.
   Charles McGrew:  Whitley Strieber has become something of
      a anti-UFO in later years; he has ceased publication
      of his Communion Newsletter and called UFO researchers
      in general "crazy" and "nasty".  Note that Strieber
      makes his living writing horror novels (notably "Wolfen".)

Jacques Vallee
Confrontations: Scientist's Search For Alien Contact, Ballantine, $25, 
1990, hardback, 1st ed
   Keith Rowell: Vallee is back to presenting "hard evidence"
      again instead of speculation. Some Brazilian peasants
      were killed in apparent encounters with UFOs.

Jacques Vallee
Dimensions: A Casebook Of Alien Contact, Contemporary, $25, 1988, 
hardback, 1st ed, Whitley Streiber Foreward 
   Kevin Rowell: The best statement of Vallee's thesis -- UFOs
      are a manifestation of a time immemorial alien control
      system.

Jacques Vallee
UFO Chronicles Of The Soviet Union, Ballantine, $20, 1992, hardback, 1st ed 
   Kevin Rowell: Vallee turns away from excessive American
      ufologist bashing to give us a reasonable rundown on
      the latest in Russian UFOs and ufology. It's been as
      bad over there as it has been elsewhere. The aliens
      seem to be equal opportunity abusers the world over.
