Publisher's summary

The UFO enigma has been part of our culture since the 1940s and is building to a worldwide explosion of acceptance today. Now, as governments around the world open their files and records on internal UFO investigations, the US remains steadfast in its denial of interest in the UFO issue. As more of the world's population accepts the possibility of an extraterrestrial presence, the demand is building for disclosure from the United States.

Using newly declassified and Freedom of Information Act documents, eyewitness accounts, interviews, and leaked documents being authenticated, The Presidents and UFOs details the secret history of UFOs and the corresponding presidential administrations. Starting in 1941 with the Roosevelt administration, author Larry Holcombe examines the startling discoveries facing a president preoccupied by WWII, the explosion of UFO sightings during the Truman years, first contact during the Eisenhower administration, and the possibility of a UFO connection to the Kennedy assassination. In 1975, the Nixon administration came very close to admitting that UFOs exist by funding a documentary by Robert Emenegger. Almost 40 years later, this book will examine Emenegger's findings. For the first time, the involvement of all of the modern presidents up to and including President Obama, and the rise and then fall of their influence on UFO issues, are told in one story that is an integral part of the fascinating UFO tapestry.

Solid, thorough and exceptionally enlightening!

The way Holcombe threads the history of UFO’s around each president since the Roosevelt-Truman era, provided me with an incredibly factual and deep understanding of not only all major UFO sightings and events over the last 70 plus years, but also with a detailed account of the US government’s cover-up response to them as well. Additionally, Holcombe provides references to additional books and online sources in the event the reader wants to drill down further on an event or an individual.

I recommend this book to anyone looking to expand their knowledge of the modern history of alien visitation to our planet.

Well done! Makes the case for…

Laid out in a matter of fact historical manor, this is a well done and competent essay on the visitation of earth by others. It more than makes the case that we have been and are being visited and observed by intelligent beings from somewhere else.

Great book!

This was obviously thoroughly researched by the author. No hype and little speculation. I enjoyed it and appreciate the work

not a lot of substance

in addition to sounding like it was written by an old man (it was), it was also only moderately interesting for the first few parts and then i lost interest. and i love alien stuff!

One of the best books ever

I’ve done 22 years of research into uFOs and would certainly have appreciated having this book sooner, as it is comprehensive of the more important UFO reports, and a good overview of the critical issues. The style is accessible and well written.

Good but not great

The book is narrated well and well written but the facts and case studies are old and already quite well known. Unless you are a die-hard conspiracy fan, this book will disappoint you.
