The UFO Controversy in America
Before turning to abduction research, historian Jacobs published his doctoral dissertation as the first rigorous academic history of American ufology, tracing the conflict between Air Force projects (Sign, Grudge, Blue Book) and civilian groups like NICAP through the Condon Report, sticking strictly to documented facts rather than speculation, with a foreword by Hynek.
