Crash at Corona: The U. S. Military Retrieval and Cover-up of a UFO
Don Berliner, Stanton T. Friedman

Crash at Corona is a finely researched book about the UFO crash near Roswell, New Mexico in July of 1947. Don Berliner does a superb job of explaining the goings on at Roswell during the incident as well as the impact it had on the government's attitude about withholding information about the existance of exterrestrial craft visiting our planet. The startling element about this book that sets it apart from other UFO books about this subject is that the statements within are backed up by reasoning and research by Stanton Friedman.

On July 8, 1947, the U.S. Army stated that the remains of a "flying disk" had been recovered from a ranch near Corona, New Mexico. Now, this book exposes the government's successful 40-year conspiracy to conceal the truth behind Americ's most documented UFO encounter.

The Best Book on Roswell--But Not Perfect,
Reviewer: Mark from Daytona Beach, FL

If you have ever taken interest in the UFO phenomenon and the grandest UFO story of all, the Roswell crash, this is the book for you. But it shouldn't be the only book you read on he subject.

The credentials of the author, Stanton Friedman, are impressive. Before he began working on UFO research, he was a respected nuclear physicist who worked on nuclear-thermal rockets. He takes a scientific approach to his research, and he has done a thorough job researching most of his material.

The point of the book is simple: an object of unknown (read: extraterrestrial) origin crashed in Corona, NM on July 2, 1947. At he same time, another UFO went down over the Plains of San Agustin. The US government realized the implications of these events and immediately confiscated all the evidence.

My complaints? Well, Friedman steadfastly denies claims made by his fellow researcher, Kevin Randle, that the main body of the craft went down just north of Roswell. He has subsequently debunked a lot of Randle's witnesses to that event, but little of that appears here. On the other hand, he presents the San Agustin crash with the testimony of only two individuals, one of whom died twenty years ago. It is possible that this event is the same as the "Socorro Crash" that Heseman and Mantell describe in their "Beyond Roswell." And Friedman defends the idea that a group named "Majestic 12" has withheld the UFO secrets since Roswell. Although there was some evidence suporting MJ-12 at the time, the idea has fallen from favor in the UFO community after fraudulent MJ-12 documents were discovered.

Crash at Corona is still the most scientific and accurate look at the confusing events in Roswell in July 1947. Still, the book should not be your only reference on this potentially world-shattering event. A true scientist and truth-seeker would read all of the Roswell books and draw their own conclusions.

A book very well researched
Reviewer: Frank(Joey) Scigliano Jr. from Imperial Beach, Ca.

Crash at Corona is a finely researched book about the UFO crash near Roswell, New Mexico in July of 1947. Don Berliner does a superb job of explaining the goings on at Roswell during the incident as well as the impact it had on the government's attitude about withholding information about the existance of exterrestrial craft visiting our planet. The startling element about this book that sets it apart from other UFO books about this subject is that the statements within are backed up by reasoning and research by Stanton Friedman. Mr.Friedman's tireless campaign of searching many archieves and the interviewing of eye witnesses adds greatly to this endeavor. Mr.Friedman believes in "research by investigation rather than proclamation". Here is an individual that has personally interviewed most of the witnesses involved in the incident that is willing to talk and still alive. I highly recommend this book and strongly urge those interested in UFO's and government conspiracies to purchase and read it.
