Description

It was once an bizarre night in October of 1938 until a news bulletin interrupted the dance music on CBS radio–aliens were invading america!
Meghan McCarthy’s hilarious Aliens Are Coming! tells the real story of the Halloween radio prank that duped much of the country into believing that Martians had invaded. The book uses excerpts from the true War of the Worlds radio broadcast and includes details about the significance of radios within the 1930s (before the time of televisions and computers) in addition to facts about Orson Welles and H. G. Wells, writer of the novel on which the broadcast was once based.
