When you first saw this book, you probably assumed it was fiction, right? Wrong! As it turns out, America's Old West cowboys did encounter UFOs and also creatures that they believed were "aliens." This happened not in comic books and films but in real life. In this book, you will read actual eyewitness accounts describing strange objects seen in the skies, and, in some cases, the even stranger occupants of those UFOs! Did you know that many years before the reported crash of a UFO near Roswell New Mexico, another weird object fell out of the sky in Aurora, Texas, in 1897? The citizens of Aurora said the dead pilot was "not of this world," and they buried him in the local cemetery, where he may still remain today. You will also learn about the flying alien monster of Crawfordsville, Indiana; the "underwater UFO" that electrocuted two men near Tacoma, Washington; a Bigfoot creature the local Native Americans said came to earth in a "small moon;" a UFO that exploded over a Texas cotton gin; and many other bizarre UFO encounters of the Old West!

Long before the first airplane took flight, when nothing but birds should have been in the skies, the early residents of the United States witnessed bizarre unidentified flying objects of all sizes, shapes, and descriptions. They encountered strange beings that clearly were not human, including "Men in Black" and possibly time travelers. They saw huge motherships, underwater UFOs, and other unexplained wonders. Some of America's most famous early historical figures, including Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, George Washington, shared an interest in UFOs and extraterrestrials. Contained within these pages is the "other" American History that you were never taught in school!While reading this book you'll ask yourself: Did Lewis and Clark encounter a tribe of extraterrestrials during their travels? Did "star rot" contain alien DNA? Was an army from outer space sent to aid in the Civil War? What was it that crashed in the Rocky Mountains in 1864, a meteor or a mother ship? And, finally, was the "martian mummy" of 1864 a hoax, or proof of life beyond the stars... "What Torres and LeMay have clearly defined in this suspenseful thriller tome, is that the UFO accounts portrayed throughout this exhaustively researched work, remain in a separate class.... Aside from a rare hot-air balloon or dirigible, there was nothing else in the air back then... or on the ground; the witnesses are clearly describing something which precedes the Wright Brothers technology.... The simple fact that such cases exist in an era where the sky above us was still pristine and H. G. Wells had yet to conquer the Earth with Martians should captivate us all...."--Don Schmitt, author of Witness to Roswell.

REVEALED FOR THE FIRST TIME: THE EDINBURG UFO INCIDENT OF 1966In the Fall of 1966, an amazing close encounter happened in rural South Texas, near the border with Mexico. It was witnessed by one of the best-known law enforcement officers and civic leaders of the time, J. R. "Milo" Ponce. An immense, brightly illuminated UFO appeared one night over a construction camp north of Edinburg, Texas. The UFO shot "beams of light and fire" down at the vehicles and equipment, causing the eight construction workers to flee in terror. Now for the first time, read the truth about this little-known incident, as told by the original witnesses.ABOUT THE AUTHORA lifelong resident of Edinburg, Texas, Noe Torres is an author, publisher, and former Texas state section director for the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).

This play is based upon a real, historical event that occurred on April 17, 1897 in Aurora, Texas, an Old West town located northwest of Fort Worth. Residents reported that a spaceship crashed in town and that they recovered "an inhabitant not of this world" from the wreckage. The incident was reported in the "Dallas Morning News" and has become one of the world's best-known UFO stories.

On July 7, 1948, U.S. military aircraft chased a fast-moving, 90-foot-diameter silver disc across Texas before watching it crash about 30 miles south-southwest of Laredo, Texas. A military retrieval team reportedly recovered the UFO and the body of its non-human occupant from the impact site. Known as the "Laredo UFO Crash," this case occurred almost exactly one year after the famous Roswell UFO Incident and holds much of the same mystery and intrigue. For the first time ever, this book presents all of the evidence regarding this hotly-debated UFO case. Author Noe Torres has appeared on the History Channel's "UFO Hunters," George Noory's "Coast to Coast AM," the Jeff Rense Program, and many other shows. His previous books include the widely-acclaimed "The Real Cowboys & Aliens: UFO Encounters of the Old West," "Ultimate Guide to the Roswell UFO Crash," and "Mexico's Roswell." He is currently director of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) in South Texas.

From award-winning "Star Trek," "Twilight Zone," and "Stargate" writer David Bennett Carren comes a startling vision of a dark tomorrow. In the not-too-distant future, Earth is a harsh world controlled by the all-powerful Nummular Corporation. Human beings exist in a bitter environment without love or hope. People toil long hours in vast, dangerous factories and live in slums terrorized by gangs of rapists and murderers.

Spirited away across the sea to a strange floating city, Abbie and her fellow captives must battle a ruthless enemy to begin the long road toward freeing human society from Nummular's iron grip. The odds seem hopeless, because there is no power on Earth that can help her. Except for the power of love....
