weather, and unexplainable occurrences. Almost every County in the U.S. published one of these histories in the latter part of the 19th century or the very early part of the 20th. Rural people are much more weather-conscious than adty folks. So, in our quest for records of falling masses of water, we are most anxious to have data from rural records. One field of research which we do not believe to have been worked is sportsman's magazines such as Field and Stream. The correspondence columns of such magazines should supply some data on singular clouds, storms, UFO's and erratics from space. The most general and intangible of all the categories for search is probably that extensive list of old books and magazines of general character which contain stories of local events and records and diaries of famous men, as well as legends and traditions. Much valuable material is buried in these, and often in single, isolated paragraphs with no headings or warning or what is coming. Most o these items will be picked up by accident by alert readers whose interests attracted by the novelty of the statement or the perplexity of the original writer. The listing of ALL astronomical references bearing on UFO is utterly impossible in this book. Such a bibliography would require a volume to itself. In the series of the Astronomical Register (British), alone, there are several hundred page and paragraph references. Doubtless, it is due to our previous lack of comprehension as to the nature and broadness of the UFO problem that such data have not been recognized for their true worth and import. For this book, the astronomical records were fairly well searched for a brief period of about fifteen years centered around the "Comet Years"—say 1870 to 1885 — with spot checks at other dates.
