Summary

The Ghost of the Philadelphia Experiment Returns was the last book published by legendary ufologist Gray Barker. At the time (1984), it was considered too "conspiratorial," and met with opposition in mainstream ufological circles.

After compiling the book from articles in his own newsletter, Barker suddenly died, and the controversial bound edition was pulled from distribution. Luckily, New Saucerian was able to locate the prototype, and has made this wonderful work available - at last - for the general public to enjoy.

In these pages, Barker deftly explores the lore of the Philadelphia Experiment, offering revelations on a variety of notorious characters, such as Carlos Allende, James Wolfe, Leon A. Seoul, Dr. Franklin Reno, Michael Ann Dunn, the Oppenheimer brothers, and William L. Moore, whose books on the Roswell UFO crash, the Bermuda Triangle, and the Philadelphia Experiment made him the highest grossing UFO author of all time.

Barker also shares interesting material from researchers Morris K. Jessup, James Moseley, Dennis Pilichis, Charles Berlitz, and Anna Genzlinger, the Miami housewife who was led by Jessup's ghost to investigate his death, and who uncovered several fascinating tidbits not only about his possible murder, but also about the CIA's role in covert mind control experimentation.

This special 2014 edition of The Ghost of the Philadelphia Experiment Returns features several photos, an introduction by paranormal radio host Jeffery Pritchett, and an epilogue by the editor, Andy Colvin, whose father was stationed at the naval yard where the Philadelphia Experiment took place.

Not what I was expecting

This is an interesting subject but I found the information in this book to be a mumble jumble and poorly structured, it was hard to pick any sense out of it all. What's worse is that the Narrator sounds like he has a bad cold and wearing heavy tooth braces. Very Monotone and rolls his Rs to the point that the whole book just sounds like Errr Errr Errr Errr which made the Jumbled Story even worse. I struggled to finish it and it nearly got returned. If you can pick the bones out of it though there are some interesting points in it and a few letters at the end which are worth a listen. Not worth a credit in my opinion.
