At Number 20!

So, in my previous rambling blog entry I discussed numbers 1 to 4 in my top 20 most read authors. Today, I am going to discuss the author at number 20: Jacques Vallee, a name that will mean little outside of the rarefied world of ufology and forteana.

Vallee was a writer and researcher with an interest in UFOs. His background was science: he was a computer scientist and astronomer, and the techniqu Read more of this blog post »
