Are we alone in the universe? This is the age-old question that has always been asked. And how many of us have actually observed anything - what we would call a UFO - that would help us in that difficult decision? Other people, such as the author of this book, have observed many strange sightings over the years, but then again, they have taken the trouble to go out and watch the skies; they also know where to look, which would seem to make a vast difference. The many bizarre sightings and encounters detailed in "A Leap in the Dark" may not make instant converts out the most diehard of sceptics, but those of us with more open minds will certainly be provided with much food for thought!
