UFO Religion: Inside Flying Saucer Cults and Culture

What is it about UFOs that speaks to people with an apparently religious intensity? In this uncanny and frequently eerie assessment of the world of UFO-logy, Gregory L. Reece travels deep into this alien mindset on a quest for the truth behind everything from Scientologists, crop circles, flying saucer crashes and alien abductions. With tales of a night in the Mojave Desert watching the night skies for flying saucers, a trip to Nevada's top-secret installation "Area 51" and a visit to the now infamous Roswell crash site, Reece provides an intelligent and humorous anecdotal account of his search for the answers.
