EDWARD J RUPPELT

The Report of Unidentified Flying Objects. (Doubleday/Ace Books, 1956).
Garden City, NY: Doubleday, 1956.
277pp.

Written by a former head of the AF's Project Blue Book public relations UFO effort.
"Brand New Enlarged Edition Latest, Up-to-the-minute Facts on UFO!" on dust jacket.
No indication whatsoever inside the new edition that it differs from the earlier edition by the addition of three extra (debunking) chapters. Without the dust jacket you would never know there are two distinct editions of this classic UFO book.
Some UFO researchers speculate that the Air Force/CIA was displeased enough with Ruppelt's pro-UFO first edition that they made him include the last three chapters in the "new edition"!
