If you've ever wondered what crashed into the desert near Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947, this book will give you some startling answers. While the first version was published in hardcover in 1997, Corso provides new evidence for the presence of alien intruders in this pocket paperback edition. Whether or not you believe his contention, the sheer weight of governmental sources and documentation presented by the former Army intelligence officer is not easily dismissed. Once you understand the historical context (in the midst of the Cold War soon after World War II, with Orson Welles having recently inspired panic in citizens with his fictional War of the Worlds radio broadcast), the military deciding to cover up a real-life alien ship becomes more credible. Corso also gives a convincing explanation of why reports were so multi-various and conflicting. Even if you believe the book is utter fiction, it's still a compelling read. --Randall Cohan
Product Description
A landmark expose firmly grounded in fact, The Day After Roswell ends the decades-old controversy surrounding the mysterious crash of an unidentified aircraft at Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. Backed by documents newly declassified through the Freedom of Information Act, Colonel Philip J. Corso (Ret.), a member of President Eisenhower's National Security Council and former head of the Foreign Technology Desk at the U.S. Army's Research & Development department, has come forward to reveal his personal stewardship of alien artifacts from the Roswell crash. He tells us how he spearheaded the Army's reverse-engineering project that led to today's: - Integrated circuit chips
- Fiber optics
- Lasers
- Super-tenacity fibers
and "seeded" the Roswell alien technology to giants of American industry. Laying bare the U.S. government's shocking role in the Roswell incident -- what was found, the cover-up, and how they used alien artifacts to change the course of twentieth-century history -- The Day After Roswell is an extraordinary memoir that not only forces us to reconsider the past, but also our role in the universe.

A landmark expose firmly grounded in fact, The Day After Roswell puts a fifty-year-old controversy to rest. Since 1947, the mysterious crash of an unidentified aircraft at Roswell, New Mexico, has fueled a firestorm of speculation and controversy with no conclusive evidence of its extraterrestrial origin - until now. Colonel Philip J. Corso (Ret.), a member of President Eisenhower's National Security Council and former head of the Foreign Technology Desk at the U.S. Army's Research & Development department, has come forward to tell the whole explosive story. Backed by documents newly declassified through the Freedom of Information Act, Colonel Corso reveals for the first time his personal stewardship of alien artifacts from the crash, and discloses the U.S. government's astonishing role in the Roswell incident: what was found, the cover-up, and how these alien artifacts changed the course of twentieth-century history.

A very nice book to read. As for the facts, it is up to each and everyone to decide. I don't think we are alone, and this book if true just shows us one small encounter of humanity with the rest of life in the Universe.

I have only just begun this book and already have read about coverups and unscrupulous activities within the government. Even if we have had "visitations" from other worlds, what would be the harm in letting the public know? I hope the rest of the book provides some answers.

This book is about a VERY COMPLICATED matter, and to think that a military intelligence man would "let us in on the truth" is completely ridiculous. Corso was part of the insiders and power brokers of this World, and we obviously are not, so this book is largely about misdirection, cover-up, and encoded information, and not to be taken at face value.
I first read this book a number of years ago and thought otherwise, naturally, but after becoming much more wise, I have come full circle on this matter. In short, if one wanted to get much closer to the truth, then while reading this book you should substitute the words "German Nazi" everytime Corso uses the word "alien". And just maybe that is what he wanted certain people to do. The strange info and diagrams at the back of the book regarding "Moon Bases", might also relate VERY WELL to the Germans. I don't doubt that other intelligent races exist in this Universe and maybe Corso really did see an "EBE" at an Air Force base, but those saucers that "crashed" in New Mexico (and other parts of the World a few years prior) were most likely of terrestrial origin, and most likely German. Of course Von Braun, Oberth, Oppenheimmer and other "Paperclip" Nazis who infiltrated the USA post WW2 would've known for sure...
The facts remain that the German's of the 1930s and '40s had all the tech that Corso claims is "alien" (and technically it was depending on your defintion of "alien", if you get my point...), and that is one of the BEST KEPT SECRETS from the WW2 era. The real question, of course, is "If the core of the German 3rd Reich survived with their high tech, where are they now and what are they up to??!!" This answer would go a looooonnng way in explaining the modern "UFO Saga". Trust me.
 WOW! Mind-boggling! May 3, 2008

Consider this book the ultimate reference on alien technology, advancement of American spatial discoveries, extraterrestrial reverse engineering and the psyche of American coverups and conspiracies. Fascinating book fueld by first hand data, reliable sources, military archives and those who are on the inside. Dynamite!

I read The Day after Roswell ten years ago. The book is not easy to forget. Two years after second world war came Roswell saucer, transistor, Dead Sea Schrolls, and independence to India. United Nations Human Rights Declaration came in 1948. Philip Corso had a lot to tell about the Roswell incident. This book is ok, interesting and entertaining. Better and better!
