Editorial Reviews

Review

"... a bold attempt to bring some order to a world-wide mystery... will stand as a seminal work..." -- Bufo Calvin's Weird World

"... speculative taxonomy, but I think it is one of the most useful texts in the ongoing controversy over Bigfoot." -- Kevin Kelly, Whole Earth Review

"It is an extensive...catalog of all the variations on the 'mystery primate' theme organized geographically and annotated extensively." -- Andrew J. Petto, Reports of the National Center for Science Education

"The book is well-researched with a good bibliography." -- William Corliss, Science Frontiers


Product Description

The Field Guide to Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates is a comprehensive study of the astonishing variety of puzzling primates that are being reported by eyewitnesses around the world – but that science has failed to recognize. This fully illustrated volume not only contains the references, range maps, and typical footprints that appeared in the first edition, but it also contains a new, complete index and new preface that updates the discoveries made since this book was first published.
"The thousands of worldwide sightings of unclassified bipedal primates, including the Yeti, may be confusing because these sightings entail more than one species. This field guide attempts to sort out the different creatures, coming up with a classification of eight possible mystery primates. But this book makes no real attempt to persuade skeptics of the existence of any of them. It's sort of speculative taxonomy, but I think it is one of the most useful texts in the ongoing controversy over Bigfoot." – Kevin Kelly, Whole Earth Review
"If only one of these creatures is verified by naturalists, it would be a biological sensation...The book is well-researched with a good bibliography." – William Corliss, Science Frontiers
"This book looks like any other field guide you might pick up. It has drawings, maps, tracks, descriptions of the organisms, and the details of the most prominent sightings or evidence....Anyone interested in folk zoology – especially anyone interested in how legends and animal lore intersect with modern scientific research – would find this to be an intriguing volume....It is an extensive...catalog of all the variations on the 'mystery primate' theme organized geographically and annotated extensively." – Andrew J. Petto, Reports of the National Center for Science Education

5.0 out of 5 stars Coleman hits another homerun!!!, April 16, 2006
This book, originally released in 1999, was controversial for the sheer number of different species covered in it. Perhaps the most controversial classification was the oceanic primates, or "mer-beings." This book is not exactly a "straight" reprint of the original volume from 1999; there is a new preface in the beginning and a new index in the back. The rest of it is the original 1999 material, but a good deal of it is relevant to the present-day reports, and the book can be very useful for those searching for these animals. The illustrations are very well-done from other's descriptions (and in some cases, photos and film) and show a diversity of sizes and shapes and colors in these mysterious primates. I do highly recommend this volume (both versions) to give the reader an idea of the different hairy bipeds around the globe.

4.0 out of 5 stars Covers Every Inhabited Continent, July 22, 2006
By R. McRae (Saugus, CA) - See all my reviews
Bigfoot, Yeti, Yowie, Orang Pendek, and Agogwe. All the most recognizable names in the world of mystery Cryptozoological primates are here. But the not so recognizable names really sale this book. Names like the Jimbra, Ngoloko, Tjangara, and the Tano Giant. And then there are those you may be a little more familiar with, like the Alma and the Didi. How about the Chinese Wildman, or the Yeren? Whether familiar or not, its probably mentioned in this guide. But that is also one of the shortcomings of the Field Guide; so many subjects, too few eyewitness accounts. My one reason for not giving it a 5 star rating. Hopefully more page additions are forthcoming in future revisions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mysterious Primates of the Earth, April 16, 2006
By Rostam Mirzadi "barb" (california, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This is the best book for reading about the myths or facts of the mysterious sightings of humaniod apes from around world. In addition to the wonderful facts there is also many great pictures to identify any of these wonderful elusive beasts.

3.0 out of 5 stars So ludicrous, it's funny. Sci-fi packaged as science.
How can a book that treats mermaids, lake gremlins, and dozens of different species of apemen as real, biological entities be taken seriously? Well, it can't... Read more
