The truth behind one of the greatest mysteries. It's almost 30 years since the first crop circles appeared in the Hampshire countryside. They made frontpage news around the world, perplexing and inspiring millions of people. UFOs, demons, tornadoes, hedgehogs and Mother Earth herself have all been identified as the force behind the formations, but the reality is perhaps more incredible. The circles are made by ordinary, if talented, people, working through the night in small teams, usually equipped with nothing more sophisticated than planks of wood, rope and tape measures. Despite being responsible for some of the most celebrated artworks of the 20th century - iconic creations that have appeared on countless TV programmes, films, adverts, album covers and even tattoos - the artists behind the crop circles have always refused to claim authorship of their work. Now, for the first time, the team behind some of the most spectacular formations of the past 20 years, whose work has appeared all across the UK, the USA, New Zealand and Continental Europe, are ready to reveal their secrets. "The Field Guide" is sure to fascinate anyone with an interest in the paranormal, pop culture and contemporary art. And you can't say that about many books!

Industry Reviews
