Top Secret/Majic

More about the book

This work results from Stanton T. Friedman's 11-year investigation into the enigmatic Operation Majestic 12, classified as Top Secret/MAJIC. For the first time, it presents startling documents detailing the recovery of a crashed flying saucer near Roswell, NM, in July 1947, and the establishment of a high-profile group by President Truman to address the incident and its nonhuman occupants. Friedman, a nuclear physicist and prominent UFOlogist, scrutinizes the evidence supporting the existence of Majestic-12, formed in 1947 to manage the aftermath of the Roswell crash. Despite government denials regarding both the incident and the group, Friedman seeks to authenticate MJ-12 documents that surfaced in 1984 and 1994. He counters the skepticism of debunkers like Carl Sagan and Phillip Klass and critiques the findings of Kevin D. Randle and Donald R. Schmitt in their work on the Roswell crash. Notably, the book includes a previously unpublished 1984 "Special Operations Manual" for recovering extraterrestrial entities and technology, which, if validated, would support Friedman's theory of a governmental cover-up he describes as a "cosmic Watergate." While speculative, Friedman approaches the subject with scientific rigor, evaluating all evidence before reaching conclusions. Recommended for public and academic libraries.
