The Day After Roswell Mass Market Paperback – June 1, 1998

A very well written book packed with verifiable names, dates, and places of historical events. Jampacked with scientifically verifiable data.

I read this book shortly after it's first release. It is and was at the time considered somewhat dry and non-sensational. Many books offer more juicey tidbits and stories. But this guy was around in the early years and offers a limited but detailed diary like accounting for how he saw the Government approch a highly classified phemon. His account paints a picture of Several High level adjecnties hiding contacts and info. Re:Though narrow in it's scope he lays out knowdledge of how large tech companies with big contracts soon came into These "artifacts" and learning to reverse engineer them into such pivital items that quickly became the computor chip. All these companies are still around, ones that for a century have enjoyed large millatary contracts, and they guard their secrets better than Fort Knox. Nothing take presidence over the Millitary when it comes to the Governments ability to lock down info. And Anything that has a possibile millitary application gets poured over and exploited for decades before it it's applications are leaked out to the public by way of "New Technology". New for the public but not new to the world. All the cutting edge scientists get their needed monies for research and development from sources that are predominetly controlled by some government and sign away thier life in confidentiality agreements to get to play with the "coolest toys", turn over their results and possible applications first to be considered for in a word War. After the rest of the world hs caught up and it's no longer secret then they release the Tech. "soup de jour" to more profitable exploits, doing so gradually (every 5mos.) to get people to keep having to come back to keep up.Corso tries to methodically layout the early years from his perspective (his proven/traceable service record) what was becomeing a system of how these Top secret issues were being handled and basically probalby still are. Author Jim Marrs came out with his book ALIEN AGENDA around the same time and I found it a much more interesting overview on the subject. But again I find this a poiniet dossier and worth reading as one who wants to understand the roots of Rock might check out Old Blues, Beatles, and Stones music etc...Reguarding (comments) The deveations and "enhancements" that he may have made at his book signings embellesshment may be one way to look at it... However another wa to look at it is thus. Many writers with sensitive information to tell will many times not give full disclossure to all they know in their books. Everyone should know that. And many times authors will while speaking on a one to one basis, reveal more info. than they wanted to go on record ever saying... And young people need to hear and have access to the truth because they will have more opputunity to do somthing with that truth. Older folks when presented with somthing controversial even if they believe it tend to just sit on the info. rarely even discussing it with their peirs for feir of making waves or worse ridacule. the younger you are the less you tend to care about what other people think of you and that's when you have the most oppurtunity to persue wherever your intersts take you. Just cuase you write a book a bio or whatever dosen't mean that you still might NOT tell everything you know. Given he like 99% of people that write with authority on the subject of UFO and the like don't have any hard evidence short of copies of memos and the like. Besides anyone that claims to have anything in their possession will sure to be inidated with All Kinds beating a path to their door. And in this case I think he was revealing (in the book) more than enough to feel that he "threw" his hat in" in regaurds to giving info. and credence to the subject.

My Rating: 4/5"The Day After Roswell" by Colonel Philip J. Corso (Ret.) is a thought-provoking exploration of one of the most infamous incidents in UFO lore. Written by a former Army officer who claims to have been intimately involved in the aftermath of the Roswell crash, this book offers a fascinating blend of personal account and conspiracy theory that will captivate readers interested in the possibility of extraterrestrial life.Corso's narrative begins with his military career, detailing his rise through the ranks and his eventual assignment to the Pentagon. It's here that the story takes a dramatic turn as he describes his involvement in the handling of debris recovered from the Roswell crash site in 1947. According to Corso, this debris was not merely a weather balloon as officially claimed, but rather pieces of advanced technology of extraterrestrial origin.What sets "The Day After Roswell" apart is Corso's insider perspective. He provides detailed accounts of how this alleged alien technology was reverse-engineered and integrated into various military projects, such as the development of fiber optics, night vision technology, and integrated circuit chips. Corso argues that these advancements, which revolutionized modern technology, were the result of studying and exploiting recovered alien artifacts.The book is written in a straightforward, no-nonsense style, characteristic of a military officer recounting events as he remembers them. Corso's sincerity is evident throughout, as he presents his experiences and conclusions without sensationalism. This lends credibility to his account, even as it delves into the realms of government cover-ups and secrecy.In the end, "The Day After Roswell" is a gripping read that offers a unique viewpoint on the Roswell incident and its alleged aftermath. Whether you believe Corso's account or not, the book is sure to spark conversations about the mysteries of the universe, the role of government secrecy, and the tantalizing possibility of extraterrestrial contact. For enthusiasts of UFO lore and those intrigued by the intersection of science and conspiracy, this book is a must-read that will leave you contemplating its implications long after you've finished the last page.

Found this book very interesting read. My friends also like it. It is out on loan now.

This book speaks the truth. Not a story for the faint of heart but for those of strong faith.I personally knew Nathan Twinning in the mid sixtys and we had conversations as I was a Astronomey major He supported what I already knew as well as my own life changing experience he even acknowledged and was aware of the event as it was related to Vandenberg AFB at the time

Absolutely fascinating read.

I didn't finish the book. It got really boring with all the military and government detail. I started skipping over a lot of it because it was boring and was giving me a headache... really! Maybe it got better, and maybe I can handle it another time. Maybe I can start over and have a new perspective, but for now I gave up and started another book.

Excellent read

If you like reading about unexplained or UFO claims, ideas, thoughts and speculations, then this is one heck of a read.The author is one of the military men who was directly involved with the crash site near Roswell, New Mexico and his story about the aftermath is absolutely fascinating. If all true, it represents a huge jump in technologies that have become common place here on earth.If you are reading - or have read - a number of UFO books, this is one of the few books that are recommended as one of the essential ones you must read. If you have a small UFO library, again, this is one you must have.A truly great read, and who knows, it could be one of the most important books ever written.Paid for with my own money - and worth every penny! Thanks

One of the most incredible stories anyone could ever tell you.

Generally tons of unearthed info has been unleashed. Im happy to read this. But as a non-official person i would say, there are much official perpective which can make the readers bored quit sometimes.

No one can be sure if UFO's are real or not. Whether you believe the claims in this book or not, it is a very good read in itself.

I believe that what colonel has said is true , because this book doesn't contain unrealistic science fiction . It is believable and the references of other people's can be cross checked. UFO phenomenon is not a matter of ridicule now as pentagon is opening its ufo office . We are moving towards disclosure.
