4.0 out of 5 stars detailed historical chronology. Not much biology., August 28, 2002
By M. Broderick "mikebinok" (Oklahoma City, OK USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
The book recounts many of the sightings of the sea serpent, almost to the point of being boring. I wasn't aware of this "serpent" as an ongoing phenomenom in early American history till reading the book, but now I see that these sightings influenced our expectations and assumptions about sea mysteries in a big way.
The sightings do tend towards repetition after awhile. Some of the personalities who became involved in the legend are interesting. I'd have enjoyed more "biology" or at least biological speculation, but that's limited to a chapter at the end of the book. Worthwhile for those with an interest in cryptozoology, others should probably skip it.
