Passport to Magonia: from folklore to flying saucers

Book • 1969
Passport to Magonia is a groundbreaking book by Jacques Vallee that challenges the conventional understanding of UFOs.

Vallee argues that the UFO phenomenon is not a new development but rather a continuation of historical stories about supernatural beings and visitations from otherworldly realms.

He draws parallels between modern UFO reports and ancient folklore, including stories of fairies, elves, and other paranormal entities.

The book presents a comprehensive analysis of these phenomena, highlighting the similarities in the behaviors and characteristics of these entities across different historical periods.

Vallee's work is characterized by its logical and rational approach, yet it maintains a skeptical stance, encouraging readers to consider the data without jumping to conclusions.
