Roswell 1947: report offered, books listed
1947 ยท Roswell, United States
Outside the region. Hind reprinted this case from elsewhere; it has a file here but no place on the map.
What was reported
Noting the French report's remark on increasing American secrecy since Roswell, Hind reminds readers that she discussed the 1947 crash claim in issue 17 and still offers a free report on it to anyone sending return postage. She observes that no other single case has generated so many books and documentaries, and lists four at the end of the review: Berlitz and Moore's The Roswell Incident (1980), Randle and Schmitt's UAP Crash at Roswell (1991), Corso's The Day After Roswell (1997) and Hesemann and Mantle's Beyond Roswell (1997). No account of the event itself is given in this issue.
What Hind made of it
Hind treats Roswell as the case that best illustrates US secrecy and the public's appetite for the subject.
