Summary: Hoodwinking a new generation
Review: I chased Von Daniken's Chariots when I was in junior high in the mid-70s -- before I was brave enough to read books other than those that fed me what I wanted to hear. After EVD published Chariots and a few sequels, his claims were trashed by the great adventurer Thor Heyerdahl, who recreated how ancients most likely did the things EVD claimed needed the help of ET visitors. Astronomer Carl Sagan also ridiculed the idea that races of ETs, from a planet evolved separately from us, would match ancient drawings of human-like spacemen. Even before these men, Clifford A. Wilson came out with "Crash Goes the Chariots." Well, after the embarrassment by Heyerdahl, it was if EVD folded his tent and disappeared... until a new generation of book-buyers came of age, I guess.
