Firestorm is the authorized biography of Dr. James E. McDonald and his early research into the UFO phenomenon. McDonald worked in the 1950s and 1960s to raise the UFO issue in the scientific community as a serious problem. This book documents his brave fight for justice and truth, and his untimely end. McDonald is a largely forgotten hero in the long and important battle to uncover the truth of the alien presence on Earth. With this landmark work, Ann Druffel places McDonald clearly where he belongs among the great pioneers of ufology.Firestorm is an intensely compelling account of the efforts of one man to create a climate where unorthodox thinking could safely flourish. It's a bravura performance; don't just buy a copy, lobby your library to do likewise. -George Early of UFO Magazine
