Reports of Sasquatch in the Pacific Northwest,
By A Customer
This review is from: On the Track of the Sasquatch (Paperback)
Canadian newspaperman, John Green, beganing investigating reports of hairy, upright, apelike creatures in the late 1950's. This book was originally published in the late 1960's. Among the sightings discussed are some of the well-known, Sasquatch classics such as "The Albert Ostman story", "William Roe's sighting of a female Sasquatch on Mica Mountain in the 1950's" and other well known and lesser known sightings. Mr Green has personally investigated and interviewed witnesses in these cases and much more. This book provides a solid background of this subject from early sightings until the late 1960's. The Author worked with such well known investigators as Rene Dahinden, Bob Titmus, Dr Grover Krantz, and he also knew Roger Patterson. Mr Patterson's 1967 film of a reported female Sasquatch, in Bluff Creek, California is well known through out the world. This is also discussed in this book. This is a well written introduction to this subject by one the most reputable lay persons on this mystery. Readers are advised that Mr. Green has also written several other books on this subject subsquently, "The Year of the Sasquatch", "The Sasquatch File", and the encyclopedic, "Sasquatch, The Apes Among Us." This book is definetely one of the most important introductions to this subject, both for it's factual reporting and the amount of hands on investigation by the Author. It is a must own for anyone interested in this subject.

Very Informitive,
By A Customer
This review is from: On the Track of the Sasquatch (Paperback)
John Green first published "On the track of the Sasquatch" in the late 1960's. Two years later he published "The Year of the Sasquatch". Both books are out of print, but you can now get both books, (with current information, and updates) in "On the track of the Sasquatch". For many people intrested in the Sasquatch this is the first book that was available in the early 70's. It gives a "north west" perspective into the enigma of Bigfoot. Green has assembled all of the sightings and stories from the past - 1840's to 1973. As well as his personal involvment into being one of the first people to look at the Sasquatch as more than a mythical creature of native Indian culture. Green gives first hand acounts about the Willow Creek tracks, Tom Slick's Norhtwest Expedition, and Roger Patersons 1967 movie. A must read for any student of Sasquatch Studies.

excellant book by an honest authority,
This review is from: On the Track of the Sasquatch (Paperback)
This is a very good and informative book by an honest man with knowledge about the subject that he writes about. Somewhat long in tooth. I wish more from this author would be forthcoming.
