The title suggests an abduction book, but Uninvited Guests falls more into the nuts-and-bolts catagory of sightings and government cover-ups. It is one of the classic UFO reference works that belongs on the same shelf as Above Top Secret and The UFO Cover-Up. Hall has been involved with ufology from the beginning. As Assistant Director of NICAP in the 1960s, he assembled an impressive compendium, The UFO Evidence, which this book is a follow-up to. Uninvited Guests is packed with incidents, references and government documents. Half of the book is appendixes, including many UFO reports by government agencies. There is lots of research data here. -- Glenn Campbell

Are they visitors from another planet? Are they human-like or human time travelers or beings from some other realm presently unknown to science? This is not a book of answers because nobody on any side of the issue really knows what UFOs are. Instead it is a book of questions starting with...What if UFOs are real? What might this mean for Humankind?
Reading this book will take the reader through a stimulating intellectual exploration of the ideas and data that relate to the contemporary UFO mystery in all of its beunldering complexity. The potential significance is awe inspiring and I am left with the feeling of standing right at the threshold."
Richard Hall is a living legend in UFOlogy, having been a public figure as long as 30 years ago. Drawing upon his broad knowledge of the field he has (finally./) written a book which sets forth his opinion of the subject. Twenty-five years ago he edited a classic of the UFO literature, "The UFO Evidence," which was published by the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena. This new effort clearly draws upon his experience gained in compiling the evidence, but it goes far beyond that, providing a perspective that could only come from a veteran UFOlogist.
"Mr Hall has seen it all."
The initial sightings, the heyday and demise of the Airforce Project Bluebook, the attempts at pressuring Congress, the failed University' of Colorado "Condon Study," the official neglect of UFO sightings, the leaks of information from insiders, the "bull and bear markets" of UFO sightings (flaps and quiet periods), the ridicule by scientists, and the continual struggle of UFOlogists to convince the "straight" world to take it seriously. Through all of this Hall has been impressed by the steady flow of high quality UFO sightings and it is upon these that he builds his case.
UFO sightings are real objects. Although this book is suitable for the beginner, anyone who reads it whether profoundly skeptical or already convincedÑwill gain from the carefully reasoned discussion of the way UFOs and associated entities have acted over the last 40 years. I highly recommend Uninvited Guests to all who are seriously interested in understanding the UFO phenomenon.
