Erich von Däniken - Disciple Of The Gods: Peter Krassa

Known to millions all over the world as the best-selling author of books about visitors from outer space, Erich von Däniken, the man, is an enigma. What are we to make of someone who is, at the same time, a writer and thinker whose daring ideas have been desseminated in millions of books and a man who has been convicted of fraud and embezzlement? In this biography of von Däniken, by his friend Peter Krassa, the author of Chariots Of The Gods? is revealed as an extraordinary, larger than life character. Däniken gives us his own account of what really happened in the miscarriage of justice that led to his arrest and imprisonment. Krassa paints a vivid picture of this seeker after gods, who has travelled from India to the jungles of South America in his search for proof of his theories of 'astronaut gods' who visited Earth in the distant past. Illustrated with black and white photographs.
