Description
It is the most famous military installation in the world. And no credible insider has ever divulged the truth about his time inside of it. Until now.
Area 51 is the first book based on interviews with scientists, pilots, and engineers—58 in total—who provide an unprecedented look into the mysterious activities of a top-secret base, from the Cold War to today.
With a jaw-dropping ending, it proves that facts are often more fantastic than fiction, especially when the distinction is almost impossible to make.
