{"product_id":"when-saucers-came-to-earth-maurizio-verga-9781448635412","title":"When Saucers came to Earth: The Story of the Italian UFO Landings in the Golden Era of the Flying Saucers","description":"\"When Saucers Came to Earth\" is the very first book in the English language entirely devoted to the story of UFO sightings that have occurred in Italy. Sightings of a special kind. The landings of \"flying saucers\" in the 1940s and '50s. These were extraordinary encounters involving ordinary people, in a world that has ceased to exist. Begin a fascinating journey back to distant 1912, when an Italian farmer met up with a ghostly light on a foggy night in the northern Italian flatlands; and travel to the early morning of New Year's Eve 1954, when an odd-looking flying saucer with two \"pilots\" observed an old bell-ringer. Over 100 amazing saucer landings are described in detail, all featuring sources and critiquing comments aimed at a better understanding of the follow-ups to - and the possible explanations for - every incident. Hundreds of maps, sketches, pieces of artwork, and newsclippings make this book a visual tour of the early years of the \"flying saucer\" phenomenon and myth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maurizio Verga\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1448635411\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781448635412\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/21\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 8.00w x 0.55d","brand":"Maurizio Verga","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935847153919,"sku":"9781448635412","price":22.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_6efa29b1-d066-4b0e-a25e-96635f1be40f.jpg?v=1681422168","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/when-saucers-came-to-earth-maurizio-verga-9781448635412","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
