A must have book for any true esoteric or Bigfoot researcher.

Bigfoot Files makes no apologies: the author, Peter Guittilla understands perfectly well he's writing on something a lot of Bigfoot researchers simply won't go near: the high strangeness side of many Bigfoot encounters.

But these encounters happen, and it doesn't help research any to ignore them.

Aside from the juicy collection of really weird things, is Peter Guttilla himself. I love his attitude. These accounts exist, and he has no patience with those researchers who continue to ignore, dismiss, or mock such encounters. Guttilla doesn't suffer fools gladly,and we need more of this attitude in research. Good for him. Enough is enough; now let's get on with the investigations, and stop debating if there's anything to investigate. (The same can be said of UFOs.)

The book is an excellent collection of highly unusual Bigfoot accounts, including some accounts of three toed beings, lizard men, and other odd entities. The overall content however is about Bigfoot.

This is one of the books that belongs on the "esoteric junkie's" bookshelf.

I was so happy to see this come out. I've known the author for many years and can vouch for his credibility. He had dedicated his life to the research of such pursuits, has had many encounters and is as authentic as they come. I find it interesting that the one critic who wrote in didn't bother to reveal himself by name...hmmm...if you want to debate, do it intelligently and don't hide! Peter is the real deal and is a real out-of-the-box-thinker!
Kudos to him and his book! :0)

Historical gem. For those that wish to have insights about the people linked to Bigfoot examinations in the 1970s, this is a must-buy treasure trove.

I was unfortunate enough to flip through this collection of new-age psycho-babble the other day and found it to be very much in line with the 1970s-era southern California mysticism regarding these supposed hominids. Lots of speculation, very little data, and an overall feeling of being bamboozled. There are good data sets out there for the existence of a large, undocumented hominid. But this book is content to rehash stale ideas about the supernatural and goes nowhere fast. Better to spend your time on the many geeky, free-for-all web sites out there that cover the same material than waste your money on this book. If you're really interested in Bigfoot, check out the golden standard, John Green's Sasquatch: The Apes Among Us, or Grover Krantz's book Big Footprints. Leave this one to the Star Trek croud that still live in mom's basement. Cheers!

I've read almost every major bigfoot book, and I also
direct a bigfoot research organization, the Bigfoot Investigation Project, a no-kill org., open since 1975.
Guttilla's book is the best since "Bigfoot" by B.Ann Slate and Al Berry, and in fact, Guttilla helped write that book.

This book is by an author who has had 5 sightings, and one touching. He is a psychic and is highly intelligent.

I have been involved in many of the events he writes about,
and this book upsets greatly all the "conventional" BF fans,
which is a tremendous plus.

BUY THIS BOOK!
