Review : Marrs attacks

4 October 1997

Millennium madness strikes—at least if you’re one of those
narrow-minded bigots who won’t accept that UFOs exist. In Alien Agenda, Jim
Marrs tells of the amazing “Martian” airship crash in Aurora, Illinois, in 1897.
Never mind that no locals talked about this earth-shattering event, or that no
one ever took a picture of any wreckage. Marrs argues that extraterrestrials
live among us—though, alas, he doesn’t name names. Published by
