I find this book very useful especially the short Bio’s of numerous individuals listed, who I see refered to in other UFO articles & books.
Being new to UFOlogy, This book is valuable as a guide to many more books and interesting UFO incidents.

“THE UFO MAGAZINE: UFO ENCYCLOPEDIA” SC
by William J. Birnes(editor).
This is a UFO book. It is an encyclopedia.
The entries are in alphabet order. For example, “A” starts with “A-12 Oxcart”, then “Abduction Scenario, Physical Evidence”, then “Abductions, indicators of”, then “Abramov Alexander”, so on and so forth(from A to Z).
This is a very good book. A superior encyclopedia. It is full of different entries. It is complete & helpful. Photos & sketches are also many.
There are also some shortcomings. First, some pages get easily loose, so you need to glue it back; Second, the writing style is a little dense, but it is still easy to read & understand.
These entries are very good(from the book). They are the followings:
. Aurora
. Belgian Triangles
. Bermuda Triangle
. Billy the Kid
. Bonilla, A.Y.
. Brooking Institution
. Canary Island case
. Cash-Landrum case
. Central Intelligence Agency(CIA)
. Central Intelligence Agency, History of UFOs in
. Children of Roswell – the longest, most exciting, & best entry of them all(23 pages).
. Clonaid
. Flight 9, Project Mogul
. Flying Triangles
. Hill, Barney & Betty
. Hypnosis, Abduction Memory Recovery

“Alien Agenda”(by Jim Marrs) is an another very good UFO book. It is very informative & enjoyable.
The contents(some) are the followings.

This book can be used as an encyclopedia, but it is so interesting I just read the entire thing front to back. It looks good and as far as I know it is considered a reliable source of UFO-related information. The only problem I have with it is typing/writing errors. Would it have hurt to have someone check for mistakes?! I opened the book at a random page and immediately spotted one. That is the only reason for not giving it five stars. The book is still good, but not perfect.

Three people I trust in Ufology: Dr. Richard Boylan, Maximillien de Lafayette, and Dr. Bill Birnes the author of this book. They are highly educated and honest. Buy this book. It is well-documented.

I wanted to give it 5 stars but because it was a small encyclopedia I gave it 4 stars.
Many of the subjects in this book were written about in other books.
But I liked the clear style of the author and the quality of data he used.
I enjoyed reading it. The chapters are condensed and take you straight to the point.
I recommend this book. It could be very helpful in your research.
