Keyhoe's writing style is engaging and easy to follow, making this book accessible to readers of all backgrounds.
One of the most compelling aspects of Flying Saucers are Real is Keyhoe's insistence on the need for government transparency regarding UFO sightings. He presents evidence of cover-ups and disinformation campaigns, pointing to a larger conspiracy to keep the truth about UFOs hidden from the public. This adds a sense of urgency and intrigue to the book, keeping readers on the edge of their seats as they uncover the secrets behind these mysterious flying objects.
Overall, Flying Saucers are Real is a must-read for anyone interested in the topic of UFOs and extraterrestrial life. Keyhoe's thorough research and compelling arguments make a strong case for the existence of flying saucers, challenging readers to question their preconceived notions and consider the possibility that we are not alone in the universe. Book Description: The Flying Saucers are Real is a book that investigates numerous encounters between USAF fighters, personnel, and other aircraft, and UFOs between 1947 and 1950. Keyhoe contended that the Air Force was actively investigating these cases of close encounter, with a policy of concealing their existence from the public until 1949. He stated that this policy was then replaced by one of cautious, progressive revelation. Keyhoe further stated that Earth had been visited by extraterrestrials for two centuries, with the frequency of these visits increasing sharply after the first atomic weapon test in 1945. Citing anecdotal evidence, he intimated the Air Force may have attained and adapted some aspect of the alien technology: its method of propulsion and perhaps its source of power. He believed the Air Force or the US Government would eventually reveal these technologies to the public when the Soviet Union was no longer a threat.
Donald E. Keyhoe, who relates here his investigation of the flying saucers, writes with twenty-five years of experience in observing aeronautical developments. He is a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis. He flew in active service with the Marine Corps, managed the tour of the historic plane in which Bennett and Byrd made their North Pole flight, was aide to Charles Lindbergh after the famous Paris flight, and was chief of information for the Aeronautics Branch, Department of Commerce.
