Bookroo's summary

Dive into the enigmatic world of Bigfoot, tracing its roots from Native American tales to modern-day sightings. This captivating journey examines the evidence and lore surrounding not just Bigfoot, but also the Yeti, Skunk Ape, and other mysterious ape-men. As you unravel these stories, question what you believe about these legendary creatures. Are they myth, or is there truth lurking in the shadows of the wild?

From the publisher

The native peoples of North America are the source of the oldest stories about Sasquatch. Tales circulated about a “wild man of the woods,” and several newspapers reported of scary encounters by hunters and trappers during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The legend of Bigfoot was born. This enthralling book recounts the long history of the Bigfoot myth, lore, and sightings, adopting a judicious, even-handed approach to the evidence and claims. It also examines the claims made for similar ape-men figures, like the Yeti, the Skunk Ape, the Maricoxi, the Australian Yowie, the Asian Wild Man, and the Orang Pendek. Rich in lore, legend, and lush imagery, this book may make you reconsider everything you thought you knew and believed to be true about the “Big Man.”
