Steamshovel Press editor Kenn Thomas returns with a collection of writings on conspiracy topics as they have become revealed in, by, and despite the major media.

'POPULAR PARAPOLITICS: Pop Culture Conspiracies' includes articles, interviews, and commentary on the many researchers and activists--the "conspiracy theorists"--that have informed the popular debate about hidden histories and secret agendas in popular culture. The book offers a real-deal examination of the people, events, and issues that animate the global conspiracy spectacle.

POPULAR PARAPOLITICS includes "Steamshovel Press #24," an issue that never appeared on the newsstands and is available only in this volume. It contains interviews with a top-five list of parapolitical writers and publishers, including Acharya S, author of 'Christ Conspiracy'; Konformist Robert Sterling; Feral House's Adam Parfrey; Joan D'Arc of PARANOIA Magazine; and Jonathan Vankin, author of 'The World's Greatest Conspiracies'. Also explored: the role-playing game origins of the Achille Lauro terrorist incident; the fashion crimes of despots by Adam Gorightly; a report on the first Conspiracy Conference by Skylaire Alfvegren; a rare essay by the late, great Jim Keith, author of 'Mind Control/World Control'; and a critique of TV's faux conspiracy critic, Jessie Ventura.

In 1947 six flying saucers circled above a harbor boat in Puget Sound near Tacoma, Washington, one wobbling and spewing slag. The falling junk killed a dog and burned a boy's arm. His father, Harold Dahl, witnessed it all and brought his partner, Fred Crisman, down the next day to see yet another UFO. The Maury Island incident became the first UFO event of the modern era.

In 1968 New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison subpoenaed Fred Crisman as part of his investigation into the JFK assassination, which became the subject of Oliver Stone's 1992 movie "JFK." Garrison believed that Crisman was the infamous grassy knoll shooter. He's also the central figure in the "Mystery Tramp" photo of the Dallas rail yard hobos.

Illustrated with rare images, "JFK & UFO "interconnects the lingering mysteries of America's most notorious assassination and its weird ufological subculture. It examines the denizens of the bizarre, semi-spook underground reflecting a stranger and more true history than offered by the mainstream.

Kenn Thomas works as a conspiracy investigator, university library archivist, and editor and publisher of the conspiracy magazine "Steamshovel Press." For Feral House he has written "The Octopus: Secret Government and the Death of Danny Casolaro," which helped expose the Inslaw scandal of the Reagan years. Thomas also co-edited (with Adam Parfrey) "Secret and Suppressed II: Banned Ideas and Hidden History into the 21st Century."
