Okay so vampires. These days, usually used to inject some sex into a book, I find. Not so in this case - they were seen truly as the horrorible demons they were originally purported to be. And our protagonists weren't fierce vampire hunters, but historians - normal people forced into the hunt by fear and fascination. Pretty cool.
This book gives complete credibility to the statement; "We have no idea of what we really don't know." Understandably, there are going to be people who think this book is worthless but what caught me is the power of the very few who go unchecked; including Presidents. To me this is more alarming than any possible alien sightings. Jacobsen begins her story with how things began and who oversees Area 51 which is located 75 miles from Las Vegas. The Air Force and Government will not acknowledge its existence. The story continues with detailed explanations about Black Operations, the CIA and Air Force Involvement, Secret Plane Developments, Pilots and other personal who have control over Area 51 and the elaborate measures used for cover-up. Much of this history will sound familiar but you may never look at past Presidents, World Leaders or government agencies with the same credibility. Annie Jacobsen has written a fascinating and disturbing account of Area 51-the Secret City.
