The Roswell Encyclopedia

Rating:
Summary: A great book
Review: For anybody interested in Roswell, skeptic or believer, this book is a must have!

Not only is the Roswell Encyclopedia informative, but's it's also entertaining. It's always fun to go back and discover new things in the encyclopedia. Overall it's a wonderful source for anyone studying this fascinating topic.

It was written in a more objective style than Randle's previous efforts, he even refutes some past witnesses, but he shows that there are questions still unanswered.

So if you're like me and want to know everything about Roswell, then I highly recommend getting this book. It's Randle's best (and most up to date) work on the subject.

Summary: A so so book.
Review: I thought this book would be great, since I at a time was heavenly into Roswell, both the tv series and the actual place. But when I recieved this book, it wasn't what I expected. The key word is "Encyclopedia". If your just looking for a book defining everything about roswell, this book is for you. But I thought this book should have been more informative. Maybe its just me, but I seemed to have skipped over "Encyclopedia" or payed less attention to it. Overall, this book is book to have, but I ended up throwing this book away.

Summary: NOT An Encyclopedia!
Review: This is a short, pre-read review/complaint 'cause I just got the book yesterday (2/8). However, as a former editor, I look first at how the book makes sense in style and this one, like Kal Korff's book, leaves one wanting for some kind of editorial control. By this I mean that I had to first count the entries (106). I found it aggravating that some authors, such as Randle and Korff, have egos so big that they have to see their name on every other page. At no time do you know what letter you are on so you constantly have to leaf back and forth. A proper, reader-friendly style would have been to have the book title on the left page, and the chapter/letter on the right side along with the title of the chapter/letter. But no one thinks of making life easy for the reader! This isn't an encyclopedia 'cause a lot of titles were left out. So it should really be called "Randle's Roswell Effluvia"! This book would have been a better project if Randle had stuck to FACTS! He doesn't and that's why it's over 400 pages long. Yeah, theres some useful info but one has to separate the wheat from the chaff, which comprises the majority of the entries. Randle has never dealt with reality 'cause if he did his books would be pamphlets! There is nothing to Roswell in connection to UFOs, crashes, or aliens. It's good business but it's also B.S., for the believers.
