Back in July, 2017, I posted this:
I have been investigating and researching UFOs, amongst
other things, since I was a teenager and got involved with UFO groups in
1974. I have, therefore a LOT of publications and books from the late 1940s onward.
I own a complete set of the original Haunted Skies -all 11
volumes- and I can tell you without any bias that they are the best books
looking at UFOs and UFO history I have ever seen. The photographs and research, not to mention
the interviews carried out by the authors, make these books a must for anyone
seriously interested in the subject. If you can find copies I suggest you buy
them.
Of course, since that time, John Hanson has taken over
publishing the books himself under the Haunted Skies banner. These are far superior to the original
volumes and supersede those but, if you can get those original books do.
With content running to over 600 plus pages the books cannot
–honestly, I am in publishing and you cannot get books this size any cheaper-
be faulted. Yet they are not selling in
any number so Hanson runs things at a loss.
I have pointed out before that actually buying and then reading a
book seems confined to the sensationalist trash full of inaccuracies and,
honestly, lies. I can prove this by showing the sales of my six books!
In September, 2017, Hanson posted this to his Haunted Skies
Face Book page:
At long last Revised Volume 2 is completed! Here is the
cover and here is the 'blurb' that will go with it....I’ve brought the price
down to £28 as its well over 600 pages with 400 illustrations sketches photos
etc that cover the period 1960-1969...A huge amount of work which has cost
thousands of pounds but I believe its important to preserve this information
especially as the as the MOD records do not exist for that period...
Haunted Skies Volume 2 *revised – The history of the UFO
presence on Earth - the files that Governments don’t want you to see! Foreword
by Nick Pope, Endorsement by Irena Scott, Ph.D John and Dawn along with V.J
Hyde proudly present their latest unique book, which covers the now forgotten
period of UFO history spanning 1960-1969.
Many people have given us support over the years; some of
them include, Betty and Freda Turpin of Coronation St fame (aka Betty Driver)
Bill Chalker, Colin Andrews, Colonel Charles Halt, Colonel Wendelle C. Stevens,
Edgar Mitchell, Ex-Canadian Defence Minister - Paul Helyer, Gordon Creighton,
Graham Shuttlewood , Kevin Goodman, Steve Wills, Malcolm Robinson, Moira
McGhee, Nick Pope, Philip Mantle, Robert Hastings, Roy Lake, ‘Busty’ Taylor,
Maria Wheatley, Polly Carson, Pat Delgado, Mathew Williams, Robert Salas, Jenny
Randles Tim Good, and Trevor James Constable.
Here is what Erich von Daniken has to say, recently after
having read some of our books:
“There are still
millions of people who think everything about UFOs is just fake news, or the
whole thing is conspiracy. After reading Haunted Skies, revised Volume One, I
am absolutely convinced that our planet is observed in our present time.
These books are very important
and I hope they will influence the sceptics around the world.”
This revised Haunted Skies book represents another colossal
undertaking of work, involving the spectacular presentation of hundreds of
forgotten UFO sightings from Police Officers, RAF pilots, and members of the
public, following over 20 years research by the authors – and, of course, the
valuable contributions made by the researchers themselves.
This book is not about us but about them and our joint
efforts to ensure that this information is preserved for future generations.
Our journey of discovery covers various peaks of UFO
activity, including the short-lived phenomena that became labelled as the
‘Flying Cross’, which was to plague the later part of the UK in 1967.
This book, like the others, is published in colour and
includes reports from the United
States . It contains approximately 600
photos, sketches, illustrations, images and supporting witness testimonials.
Many people still ask why the books are so costly. This is
due to print costs, the size of the book (624 pages) and of course, colour
images which so many people have asked us, over the years, to include - not
even taking into consideration the tremendous time incurred spent travelling
the length and breadth of the UK
to interview both the witnesses and researchers.

*This book replaces some of the original Volumes 1-6,
removed from sale in late 2014.
There you have it.
£28 for a book like this is actually quite low –a regular publisher would list
it as somewhere between £35-40.00. Even
now I still rummage through the volumes and if you have seen any of the
interviews Hanson has given Richard D. Hall (check Richplanet or You tube) you
will know a lot of work has gone into this series and the only
mystery is why no established publishing house has offered to publish the
books.
So, Haunted Skies –highly recommended.
