Timothy Good is interviewed by Forbidden Knowledge TV
11 Jan 2014
‘Timothy Good has conducted research worldwide, interviewing key witnesses and discussing the subject with astronauts, military and intelligence specialists, pilots, politicians and scientists, which has established Timothy Good as a leading authority on UFOs and the alien presence - the most highly classified subject on Earth. Timothy Good’s first book, ‘Above Top Secret: The Worldwide UFO Cover-Up’ (1987) became an instant bestseller, and is regarded widely as the definitive work on the subject, together with the fully revised and updated book replacing it, BeyondTop Secret: The Worldwide UFO Security Threat (1996), which remained for five weeks on the Sunday Times bestseller list. He has written several best-selling books on the subject and his latest work, ‘EARTH: An Alien Enterprise’ was recently released by Pegasus Books (New York) in November 2013.’

The Times reviews Christian Wolmar
02 Jan 2014
‘Christian Wolmar is Britain’s foremost railway historian, with almost a dozen books on railways in Britain and abroad. This is one of his best. Witty, fluent and opinionated, he shows a superb grasp of Russia — its people, history and mindset. Though the focus is the vast enterprise of building the railway, he ranges widely, giving us an excellent account not only of the political intrigues and dreadful social conditions of Tsarist Russia in the throes of change, but the appalling cost of the railway – in lives and subsequent conflict. The polemical chapter on the civil war is explained in an aside when he reveals that his own father was a former Tsarist army officer who deserted and fled to Paris in disgust at the cruelty and incompetence of the White army. Wolmar leaves us in awe of an achievement that has made the Trans-Siberian not only the longest but the greatest railway line ever built.’
