Amazon.com Review:
Kevin Randle is known as the foremost expert on the 1947 UFO sighting in Roswell, New Mexico. His thorough encyclopedia offers an A to Z-style listing of all you ever wanted to know about the Roswell incident. Regardless of whether you come to this encyclopedia as a skeptic or a firm believer in the landing of an alien spacecraft and the subsequent government cover-up, this book presents a host of fascinating information. Randle provides the names of key witnesses, such as Major Edwin Easley (a soldier responsible for security at Roswell Army Air Field) who cryptically concurred with the theory that the crash was caused by visiting extraterrestrials. Other players include J. Bond Johnson, a Fort Worth Star-Telegram photographer who shot six photos of the debris from the crash site.
Roswell aficionados will have no problem finding their desired listings, knowing to look under the letter "I" for "International Roswell Declaration." Newcomers will have to thumb their way through--not a tough assignment considering all the intriguing facts and entries in this enthusiastic Roswell almanac. --Tara West
Product Description:
On July 6, 1947, rancher Mack Brazel walked into the sheriffs office in Rosewell, New Mexico, to report some strange debris in one of his fields. The incident was the culmination of several reports of strange lights, sounds, and shapes in the sky; the beginning of a series of government statements, retractions, and denials; and the subject of a thousand conflicting stories.
What actually happened at Rosewell-and how the government reacted to the case-has been in dispute for more than half a century. Now this unique reference guide, by one of the best known and respected Rosewell experts, presents a mountain of pertinent information in an easy-to-use A-to-Z format, including facts, theories, people, objects, observation, and events. Exhaustive, up-to-date, and compelling, The Rosewll Encyclopedia will help you come to your conclusions about an incident that continues to mystify and fascinate believers and skeptics alike.

For anybody interested in Roswell, skeptic or believer, this book is a must have!
Not only is the Roswell Encyclopedia informative, but's it's also entertaining. It's always fun to go back and discover new things in the encyclopedia. Overall it's a wonderful source for anyone studying this fascinating topic.
It was written in a more objective style than Randle's previous efforts, he even refutes some past witnesses, but he shows that there are questions still unanswered.

I thought this book would be great, since I at a time was heavenly into Roswell, both the tv series and the actual place. But when I recieved this book, it wasn't what I expected. The key word is "Encyclopedia". If your just looking for a book defining everything about roswell, this book is for you. But I thought this book should have been more informative. Maybe its just me, but I seemed to have skipped over "Encyclopedia" or payed less attention to it. Overall, this book is book to have, but I ... Read More

This is a short, pre-read review/complaint 'cause I just got the book yesterday (2/8). However, as a former editor, I look first at how the book makes sense in style and this one, like Kal Korff's book, leaves one wanting for some kind of editorial control. By this I mean that I had to first count the entries (106). I found it aggravating that some authors, such as Randle and Korff, have egos so big that they have to see their name on every other page. At no time do you know what letter you are ... Read More

Kevin Randle's "Roswell Encyclopedia" is a comprehensive reference devoted entirely to the alleged UFO crash of 1947. Loaded with biographies, historical notes, book reviews and longer chapters that delve into territory familiar to readers of Randle's other books, the "Encyclopedia" is an admittedly biased effort on the part of Randle; the conclusion one tends to reach after plowing through this tome is that something weird indeed happened outside Roswell Army Air Field in the summer of 1947, and that ...

I've never committed a crime before, but I toyed with the idea when I spotted this book. I wanted to steal it. You see, UFO's have always been outside my sceptical radar, so I didn't want to be seen with it.
Why the sudden interest? Well, it all started when I got abducted, so to speak, by the TV series Roswell. I've become an unlikely fan and irresistibly curious. I did pay for the book, by the way, but reading it was still a guilty pleasure. Since it's an A to Z format, it's easy to ... Read More
