Book Description
Explore the New Frontiers of Nature

Neo-Giants, hairy, upright creatures-the classic Sasquatch-spotted and filmed by two men in Six Rivers National Forest, California...

True Giants, like the "nyalmo" of the Himalayas, the cannibals of folklore, often fifteen feet tall, leave startling two foot long, four-toed tracks in the mud and snow...

Merbeings, known as "chupacabras," spiny-backed primates frequently blamed for the mutilation of sheep, goats, and other animals, sighted last year in Puerto Rico, the United States and Brazil...

Thousands of reports of a wide variety of mysterious primates have intrigued humans since the beginning of recorded history, yet these shy and reclusive beings have eluded the most diligent attempts to verify their existence. Here is the first-ever comprehensive study on an astonishing variety of puzzling apelike and humanlike animals that are still being seen today. This fully referenced volume includes range maps and typical footprints for each type of undiscovered creature sighted around the world, as well as:Actual eyewitness accounts of sightingsDetailed IllustrationsNewest findings in an exciting branch of cryptozoologyLikeliest locales and most common subtypes for sightingAdvice on what to do if a sighting occursAnd much more!

5.0 out of 5 stars intelligent and provocative, March 21, 1999
By Jerome Clark (Canby, Minnesota) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Veteran anomalist Loren Coleman and science writer Patrick Huyghe have written an intelligent, absorbing overview, taking material that is certainly controversial -- and, to some, downright outlandish -- and making surprising sense of it. They know their anthropology and zoology, and they apply the tools of these disciplines to the analysis of legendary creatures whose existence most anthropologists and zoologists dispute. They lay out a persuasive argument that we share our planet with some awfully interesting animals, some of which may be even closer evolutionary cousins of ours than gorillas and chimpanzees are. In a few cases, such as chupacabras and merbeings, Coleman and Huyghe may be operating on the outer edges of plausibility, but even here their thinking is never less than original and provocative. This is a very good book, crisply written and difficult to put down once you've started reading it.
