Above Top Secret : Uncover the Mysteries of the Digital Age

Jim Marrs can justifiably be considered the world's leading conspiracy author, with multimillion-copy bestsellers like Alien Agenda, Rule By Secrecy, and the book that Oliver Stone used as a basis for his JFK movie, Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy. Now Marrs has allied with the Web's most popular conspiracy forum to investigate everything from chemtrails to the Nazis' Antarctic base, moon landing hoaxes to UFOs, God as an alien to the end of the world in 2012. AboveTopSecret.com is the Internet's largest and most popular discussion board community dedicated to the intelligent exchange of ideas and debate on a wide range of "alternative topics" such as conspiracies, UFOs, the paranormal, secret societies, political scandals, New World Order, terrorism, and dozens more. Marrs brings his rigorous journalist's credentials to bear on these topics and more, asking (and often answering) the essential who, what, where, why, and how questions in compelling, page-turning fashion. A native of Fort Worth, Texas, Jim Marrs earned a BA in journalism from the University of North Texas in 1966 and attended graduate school at Texas Tech University for two years more. He has worked for several Texas news papers, including the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, where, beginning in 1968, he covered stories locally as well as in Europe and the Middle East. After a leave of absence to serve with a Fourth Army intelligence unit during the Vietnam War, he became the military and aerospace writer for the newspaper and an investigative reporter. Since 1980, Marrs has been a freelance writer, author, and frequent invited public speaker.
