摘要

Area 51 is not a myth. Named after a section on an old government map, it's in the middle of Nevada and includes the dry Groom Lake bed, several runways, and dozens of buildings. It is where the U.S. government performs highly classified aviation research. And it has been the subject of speculation and conspiracy theories for decades. Look it up on Google. Dwight Zimmerman and artist Greg Scott have now produced Area 51: The Graphic History of America's Most Secret Military Installation. It's sort of an odd topic for a graphic treatment. But Area 51 is clearly intended as an introductory book aimed at a young adult audience. It addresses the topic seriously, recounting Groom's history, from its origins in the 1950s as the testing site for the CIA's U-2 spyplane through the development of the F-117 stealth fighter in the 1980s and up to today. Notably, it also addresses a bunch of lesser-known (and smaller) projects such as stealthy cruise missiles. At times the books seems too packed full of stuff for its audience. And not everything in the book was developed at Area 51.
