Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yowie, Yeti... the idea that monstrous man-apeas lurk in the remote forests and high mountain valleys of the world is an enduring and popular one. Hardly a week goes by without some report of a fresh encounter.
In 1793, the Boston Gazetter reported a sighting of what the Cerokee call a chickly cuddle or hairy man thing. In 1818 the Watchman recorded the visit of a Wild Man of the Woods. Ever since, hundreds of eyewitness accounts of a giant, elusive beast that stands upright on its hind-legs have come flooding in.
One creature was seen trying to catch a calf in a farmer's field; a group of them used rocks to point the walls of a remote cabin. More recently, four teenagers in rural America were startled when a huge hairy creature landed on the roof of their car.
Complete with remarkable photos and illustrations, Sasquatch takes a fresh look at the man apes reported to exist in North America, South America, Australia, the Himalayas and Central Asia. It examines historic sightings as well as up to date ones- and poses the crucial questions: are they really out there?
