About This Item
Washington DC: Smithsonian, 1997. First edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/near fine. True first edition. About As New in all respects, clean and unmarked. First printing, full number line. From the publisher: The researchers "show how the story—and its continual retelling—tap into modern fears about the power of technology, the duplicity of the government, and the power of the media. UFO Crash at Roswell also includes physicist Charles Moore's meticulous account of how 1947 experiments to launch balloon-borne radar reflectors may have led to the Roswell UFO myth." Most items ship with tracking numbers and (generally over $15.00) jacket protectors if applicable. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible.
