Author postulates that planet earth has been host to generations of inte:rstellar
visitors who can travel with or without what we call fiying saucers and who fall
into four classifications: ministering ang~l-::; guardian angels; angel reapers;
and fallen angels. He discusses their characteristics and trait& ar.d then
warns against "counterfeit" flying discs causing crashes, near collisions,
near-havoc, and all manner of fear and superstition. He lists occurrences
1945-1960 that seem to ind:icate a r..attern of violence and deliberate
interference.
