Book description
IT WAS A CONSPIRACY TO HIDE A SECRET EXPERIMENT
"RAAF captures flying saucer on ranch in Roswell
region." Ever since this provocative headline appeared on
July 8, 1947, conspiracy theorists have sincerely believed that the U.
S. government has maintained an extensive operation of
cover-up-and-denial regarding its knowledge of alien life. But there
was, in fact, no UFO crash with dead alien bodies. What really
happened on that fateful day is much more sinister. The persistent
rumors surrounding the UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico, are part of a
bigger conspiracy -- one orchestrated and fostered by the government
itself as a smokescreen to bury a truth that is much darker, and
disturbingly, far more believable.
Now, through never-before-revealed testimony from military
whistleblowers, eyewitness intelligence reports, and an astonishing
body of corroborative evidence, Nick Redfern lays out a shockingly
plausible new theory on the Roswell incident: that the crash-site
discovery of prototype military aircraft would expose a damning secret
-- a highly confidential, U. S. government-sanctioned program to
conduct medical experiments on deformed, handicapped, disfigured, and
diseased Japanese POWs, exploited as "expendable" victims by
their captors.
An important account that forces us to take a closer look at both
the Roswell story and post-war American history, BODY SNATCHERS IN
THE DESERT casts a startling, new light on a shocking conspiracy
more than half a century in the making.
Nick Redfern began his writing career in the 1980s
on Zero -- a British-based magazine devoted to music, fashion,
and the world of entertainment. He has written eight books, including
Body Snatchers in the Desert: The Horrible Truth at the Heart of
the Roswell Story, and has contributed articles to numerous
publications, including the London Daily Express, Eye Spy
magazine, and Military Illustrated. He lives in Dallas, Texas.
