About this book

About this Cryptids mythology guide

Footprints, a blurry film, and not one bone in sixty years. The complete story of Bigfoot, the forest giant North America cannot stop looking for.

He leaves footprints and almost nothing else: no body, no bones, no captured specimen, just a trail of tracks, blurred photographs and the testimony of people who say they have seen a giant, hairy man-shape vanish into the trees. Bigfoot is the most famous cryptid in the world, and the most stubbornly elusive.

This is the complete story of Bigfoot. The Native American traditions of wild men and forest giants that long predate the name; the 1958 logging-camp tracks in California that gave Bigfoot his name; the 1967 Patterson-Gimlin film and the arguments that still surround it; the Sasquatch of the Pacific Northwest and the sightings reported across the continent; the hoaxes that have muddied the record; and the question of what people are really seeing out there.

The book treats the sightings as evidence rather than gospel, tracing the history of the legend and the folklore beneath it. Every case cites its sources.

Delivered as a print-quality PDF within 24 hours of purchase.
