A History of USOs: Unidentified Submerged Objects: Volume 1: From the Beginning to 1969
Who is Richard Dolan?
Richard Dolan, a highly respected historian and researcher in the field of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), expands his investigative lens to the mysterious realm of unidentified submerged objects (USOs) in A History of USOs: Volume 1. I purchased the eBook the day it was released on Amazon.
The Study Cover Ancient Times to 1969
This first installment, covering historical accounts from ancient times through 1969, offers a meticulously researched and compelling deep dive into a subject that has long been overshadowed by its airborne counterpart.
Dolan presents a well-structured chronology of USO encounters, exploring declassified military reports, firsthand testimonies, and historical documentation to build a compelling case for the presence of these enigmatic underwater phenomena.
Scholarly and Accessible
His approach is both scholarly and accessible. His storytelling style feels like sitting and listening to a good friend talk. I found myself on the edge of my seat as case after case unfolded. This book is a valuable resource for both dedicated researchers and curious newcomers.
Distinguishing Between Credible Accounts and Speculative Theories
The book benefits from Dolan’s thorough analysis, as he examines various cases with a critical eye, distinguishing between credible accounts and speculative theories. While he acknowledges the mystery surrounding these objects, he maintains a balanced perspective, considering multiple explanations without resorting to sensationalism. Richard Dolan did not disappoint—this is the definitive book on USOs, a topic only recently gaining the attention it deserves. I look forward to forthcoming volumes in this study.
Valuable Appendixes
A feature included is the appendix, especially Appendix B where in the ebook version is available via a link to an amazing spreadsheet where the workbook consists of 20 separate spreadsheets breaking down USOs into every category you can imagine. This had to take hundreds of hours but helps with serious analysis of the subject.
World-class Illustrations
Illustrator Allan Lavigne enhances the reading experience with detailed visuals that complement Dolan’s research, bringing historical sightings and documented cases to life. The illustrations are an amazing visual representation of key moments in each case, making the reader feel as though they are witnessing the events firsthand. Bravo to Richard Dolan, his encouraging wife Tracey, and Allan Lavigne for an outstanding work. You hit a home run.
Final Thoughts
A History of USOs: Volume 1 is a groundbreaking contribution to the study of unexplained underwater phenomena. With Dolan’s rigorous research and engaging writing, this book is a must-read for those fascinated by the hidden mysteries beneath our oceans. It belongs in every public, school, and university library as the definitive work on the subject. A must-have for anyone interested in UAPs, UFOs, USOs, and flying saucers.
