Flying Saucer.”
Here is a.book about “fiying saucers” which can

to. the “open-minded”, to the lay-parton looking for
more corroboration to back up his beliefs i the
reality of visiting space-ships, and to the technically-
minded man who may well be rather eurprised at the
wealth of detail of « highly technica! nature included
im this. work.
