Excellent overview of modern ufology
Reviewer: Jason Richard from California
Randle has written an excellent book. Unlike most so-called "investigators" of UFOs, he actually researches his books, downplays speculation, and usually only comes to conclusions if it's warranted by the evidence. As for "The Randle Report," most of its pages are occupied exposing as hoaxes many of the UFO cases that have captured the headlines - namely, Travis Walton's 1975 abduction claim, the Majestic 12 documents, Ed Walters' Gulf Breeze photos, the alien autopsy footage, and photos of supposed dead aliens. He also discredits some Roswell witnesses, such as Jim Ragsdale and Glenn Dennis, while affirming that the weight of evidence still supports the belief that a UFO crashed there. He refutes the Air Force's recent contention that the wreckage Mac Brazel found on his ranch was really a Project Mogul balloon, quite convincingly. The only case in which he really comes to a positive conclusion on is some videotape taken by the space shuttle Discovery in 1991 of some strange objects in space that were demonstrably not ice particles. He also presents the evidence of a rather extraordinary UFO crash in Shag Harbour in 1967. When it comes to the Chupacabras and 1996 reports that the Brazilian military had captured some extraterrestrials in the jungle he concludes that their cases have yet to be proven, so more research must be done. I have been reading UFO literature for some time now and have found very few books written by sane, balanced individuals who actually research their cases. Before Randle I had only been impressed by Edward Ruppelt's "Report on Unidentified Flying Objects" and John G. Fuller's "Incident at Exeter." Since most UFO books today are about hypnosis-generated alien abduction accounts (of which I have a very low opinion) Randle's work, grounded in real research, is a godsend.
