Quote:UFO historian Loren E. Gross (Fremont, California) is near completion of his gigantic chronological history of early UFOlogy, up to 1959. AFU are the proud owners of 94 of the booklets in the series, the three latest pictured on the left. They represent more than 30 years of dedicated work by Gross.
How great if this unique material was made available on the internet…?
Added on February 21: In an email to AFU, Loren Gross writes, modestly: “To give credit where credit is due, the vast majority of the good stuff in my monographs was due to the efforts of people like Barry Greenwood and Jan Aldrich. The only claim to fame I may have is the sorting, typing, & printing (plus paying the cost). The real strength of my history series has been the extensive quoting of original material regardless of copyright. That fact forbids commercial publication. Researchers (for whom the monographs were meant) prefer the original text (I might add that when I express my own opinion in the monographs, I’m not always right!)”.
