Publisher's summary

In this landmark work on a subject too often dismissed as paranormal or disreputable, Jeffrey Meldrum gives us the first book on Sasquatch to be written by a scientist with impeccable academic credentials. He gives an objective look at the facts in a field mined with hoaxes and sensationalism.

Meldrum reports on the work of a team of experts from a wide variety of fields who were assembled to examine the evidence for a large, yet undiscovered, North American primate. He reviews the long history of this mystery - which long predates the "Bigfoot" flap of the late 50s - and explains all the scientific pros and cons in a clear and accessible style.

Anyone who has pondered the mysteries of human evolution will be fascinated and eager to join Dr. Meldrum in drawing their own conclusion.

Compelling approachable scientific analysis

Dr. Jeff Meldrum wrote a compelling book of scientific evidence analyzed against other scientific information about primates that we have studied in the natural world. It was well written and kept my interest. His data presentation and analysis were easily understood and relatable, so don't shy away from the scientific approach of this book. The book does an excellent job of tying together the lore of sasquatch, culture of skepticism, and scientific examination of the subject. Great read and I highly recommend it!

Not for the straight up layman

But if you have some medical or biology in your background, it’s very interesting. There’s way more evidence than i thought. He’s convinced me to keep an open mind.

Really goes into the scientific aspect of investigating bigfoot encounters and evidence. The narrator has a good voice as well.

A scientific perspective

I enjoyed it even though most of it was over my head as a lot of time is spent talking about anatomy. I like that the subject is being taken seriously by at least SOME qualified people. I believe it deserves that.

Informative

If you are looking for information on sasquatch, this is your book. Dr. Meldrum seems to have covered every possible angle on sasquatch leaving you feeling as though all we are missing is a body or body parts. Which is all we are missing. Very interesting book. Thanks!!
