You’ve read about it. Watched it on TV. Seen it at the movies. Heard people from all walks of life give personal testimonies.
What am I referring to? Alien abductions of course. Ever since mankind began there have been tales of strange craft and creatures who kidnap humans for their own nefarious purposes.
Ancient texts are full of it. Prehistoric and historical art portray it and ever since the Roswell incident in the late 1940s UFO sightings and alien abduction incidences have increased.
Are those who claim to have witnessed or been a victim of alien abduction telling the truth or is it all an elaborate hoax?
In Alien Abduction The Control Factor authors Jim Bouck and Robert Long and Schiffer Publishing examine the subject from alien implants to quantum theory.
Recalling incidents by alien abduction victims and combing through government documents, personal accounts, newspaper and media testimonies and more the authors examine the phenomenon and the various theories and incidents associated with it.
Do you believe?
I often kid my friends and family who are close to my age that we are all (according to the description of antiques) highly collectible.
Fun Collectibles For The 1950s, 1960s & 1070s by author Jan Lindenberger, along with Dana Cain, examines and presents the kitchen, pop culture, toys, and fashions of bygone years.
It’s a little disconcerting when the things I remember from my youth and used almost on a daily basis are now considered antiques and collectibles-many of which go for considerable amounts of money.
It’s a fun excursion into the past when times were simpler, choices were fewer and everything seemed new and exciting.
The book is filled with full color photos, brief items descriptions and what collectors can expect to pay for their individual trips down Memory Lane.
Bond-James Bond. The superspy’s weapon of choice was the Walther PPK-a deadly little automatic with the kick of a mule and the firepower to take down the most powerful adversaries.
In Walther P.38 Germany’s 9 MM Semiautomatic Pistol In World War II, author Stephane Cailleau looks back on the handgun that not only inspired James Bond’s author Ian Fleming to equip his hero with a later model but a weapon that set the standard for semiautomatic pistols.
The deluxe hardbound book is filled with full color and black and white photos of the P.38 in all of its variations, its ammo, accessories, clips, holsters and modifications and improvements.
Accompanying the photos is in-depth text tracking the development of the gun and its progression and uses over the years.
It’s a wonderful historical account of one the most famous handguns ever devised complete with historical facts, loads of background information and beautifully staged photo montages of the weapon accompanied by its various accoutrements and accessories.
