Buck Nelson

Buck Nelson (April 9, 1895 - March 28, 1972) was an American contactee.

Background
By his own accounting, as expressed in "My Trip to Mars, the Moon, and Venus" (1956), Nelson worked most of his life as a labourer, leaving school after the sixth grade to work as a farmhand, and spent a good portion of his adult life travelling across the United States, taking a variety of jobs as he went, including as a logger, railroader, rancher, and farmer. Later in his life, Nelson purchased eighty acres in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri, near Mountain View, settling down to farm and run a sawmill before his eventual retirement.
