RIP Erich von Däniken, whose CHARIOTS OF THE GODS (1968) was literally on every bookshelf in 1970s. All the commentary about him being a crank misses the point. It was a time when UFOs, ghosts, the Bermuda Triangle & other occult phenomena where mainstream preoccupations & he was at the centre of it
