Book Overview

For enthusiasts and doubters alike, co-authors Jim Willis and Michael A. Kozlowski--one a skeptic and the other a believer--explore the evidence of the man-beast and pull you into the mystery of Bigfoot. They give you plenty of information to help you form your own opinion!


Numerous sightings, mythic folklore, and sensational hoaxes. What are we to believe? Does a hulking, hairy, 800-pound, nine-foot-tall, elusive primate roam the woods and forests throughout North America--and the world? What should we make of the grainy videos and photos, the thousands of eyewitness reports, the giant footprints, inexplicable noises, and reports of a primal sense of being watched? Bigfoot Sightings: True Tales from Across America is a thorough look at the evidence and stories about the cryptid primate.


You'll explore the physical evidence (footprints, hair samples, photos, and videos); the circumstantial evidence (nests, shelters, and tree structures); the anecdotal evidence (numerous witness stories); the potential explanations for the creature (the giants mentioned in ancient texts, the evolution from Neanderthals, extraterrestrial origins, and shapeshifters); and the history, mythology, and folklore behind the legend in this fascinating book. The authors tell stories of encounters, sightings, and reports across cultures and continents, from Native American legends to modern-day sightings, including ...
  • The origins of the names, Bigfoot, Yeti, and Yowie, Abominable Snowman, Sasquatch, China's Yeren, Australia's Joogabinna, the Almas, and others;
  • The hoaxes and the creation of various modern myths;
  • DNA analysis and genetic tests;
  • The initial discovery of Sasquatch footprints in 1811 by explorer David Thompson;
  • Ape Canyon near Mount St. Helens in Washington state named after a 1924 report of Bigfoot sightings;
  • The Bigfoot image in the 1967 film shot by Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin in Northern California;
  • The history of Sasquatch encounters told by Indigenous peoples;
  • The thousands of reported Bigfoot sightings in 49 of 50 states (Hawaii being the sole exception) and Canada;
  • And many more stories and evidence examined of the cryptid beast!


    Documenting the enticing clues and hearing witnesses out, Bigfoot Sightings contemplates the mysterious beast and its enigmatic existence. This richly researched reference is overflowing with fascinating information to make you think--and possibly reconsider your next camping trip!
