Resumen del Editor

Throughout North America, there is an enduring legend that describes a race of giant, hairy ape-men said to inhabit the remotest forests and mountains. Yet, could such things really exist?

Ken Gerhard is a widely recognized cryptozoologist who has traveled the world searching for evidence of mysterious animals including Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, el Chupacabra, the Beast of Gevaudan, as well as enigmatic winged creatures. In this essential primer, Gerhard presents the most accurate and indispensable information that's been gathered with regard to the Bigfoot phenomenon - the best evidence supporting its existence, consensus expert opinions up to this point, the most compelling encounters and really everything you need to know about the subject in order to become Sasquatch savvy.

The listener will get answers to questions such as:

• Do they really exist?
• What are they?
• What do they look like?
• How many are there?
• Are they dangerous?
• Where are the remains?

In addition, Gerhard discusses his own expeditions, findings and opinions. Finally, Ken makes an argument that there may be a distinct, pygmy version, which he refers to as "Littlefoot," and which may be connected to other worldwide man-beasts, including the Yeti.

Disappointing

This started out really well, and I felt like I was learning things. The author sounded serious about assessing things honestly and carefully.
Then he began telling stories and things were all "appeared", "implications", etc. He didn't' seem to refute those accounts.

I'm very disappointed,

Narration was actually pretty good for the serious part but after that it did not fit at all! However, he is a good narrator, just not a good fit, so I'm giving him 5 stars since it wasn't his choice to be chosen for this.

Great Overview of Bigfoot

This is a great overview guide to Bigfoot. It has a lot of good information including the history and notable names in the field of research. The author notes famous encounters and offers his opinions. That being said, this book is a bit dated and some of the conclusions are incorrect. If you enjoyed this book and want to learn more, I recommend the excellent Sasquatch Chronicles podcast. One of the oldest and the best Bigfoot encounter program. Hear the stories from the witnesses themselves. Sometimes the aftermath is worse than the encounter. I also suggest books by Tom Lyons, Steven Armstrong, Jada L Roberts, Rusty Wilson and Richard Hunt. Frightening tales you won’t find anywhere else. The good, bad and ugly. Narration of the audiobook was rather rote.

excellant

one of the best detailed and overall view of the Bigfoot! absolutely loved it

Disappointed in narration.

Book is a nice addition to the history and context of the Bigfoot phenomenon, especially in North America. I’d recommend it for those interested in a relatively objective narrative. Lots of anecdotes, though some were only very briefly summarized, perhaps because there wasn’t much more to them; not sure.
You might want to read rather than listen. Admittedly a very subjective taste, I found the narrator’s voice irritating, coming across to me as somewhat pretentious, preachy self important, and smug.

Uh must for any Bigfoot enthusiasts!!

Great book, very informative, written in a way for the everyday squatcher can relate to not just the “boggy creek incident or the “Patty” film but deep dive in Bigfoot history that was relatable & not to technical

Excellent book

One of the best books on the subject I’ve ever heard. I highly recommend to anyone who is seriously interested in this anomaly.
