A review by librarimans
The Day After Roswell by William J. Birnes, Philip J. Corso

3.0

While the subject matter is pretty fantastical (recovered alien technology from the supposed crash in Roswell in 1947 leads to nearly every major scientific advance made in the post war and Cold War period), I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there weren't some nuggets of truch buried in the more outlandish claims. Do I believe the KGB had infilitrated pretty highly into the US Gov't during the Cold War? Sure, I think it would be a bit naive to think otherwise. Do I think our comparatively limited technology of the time was enough to thwart the advances of a race that had mastered interstellar travel? Yeah, not so much. Ultimatelt it was a pretty interesting read though.
