Make mention of the word "alien" and it conjures images of black-eyed, large-headed, dwarfish beings that have come to be known as the Greys. Indeed, Greys have become a staple part of pop-culture, never mind just the field of UFO research. They've appeared in Steven Spielberg's classic 1977 movie, Close Encounters of the Third Kind. They regularly popped up in The X-Files. And, of course, there are numerous people - all across the world - who claim to have been abducted by the Greys and subjected to intrusive medical experiments. Yet, before the 1950s, the Greys were nowhere in sight.

The Alien Book: A Guide to Extraterrestrial Beings on Earth shows that extraterrestrial life comes in all kinds, appearances, sizes, and bodies. They all have one thing in common, however: the human race has encountered them, and we continue to do so today. Not just dozens, or even hundreds, but thousands of eyewitness experiences have been reported. Covering hundreds of extraterrestrial life forms in more than 40 thematic chapters, this absorbing look at the mysteries of aliens on earth includes ...

• the fiendish Reptilians: seven-to-eight-foot-tall predatory shapeshifters
• Men in Black beings: extremely pale-skinned, tall, and with huge eyes
• Black-eyed Children: anemic-looking kids and possible ET-human hybrids
• Bigfoot
• the werewolf-like Dogmen
• jellyfish-style aliens that soar around the skies of our world
• the Shadow People: dangerous humanoids that terrorize people

• and many, many more!

The Alien Book investigates the full range of sentient, alien life forms. Some are benign and others downright deadly.

They all lurk on Earth and in this chilling book!
