Summary

Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yowie, Yeti...the idea that monstrous man-apes lurk in the remote forests and high mountain valleys of the world is an enduring and popular one. Hardly a week goes by without some report of a fresh encounter.

In 1793 the Boston Gazette reported a sighting of what the Cherokee call a "chickly cuddly" or "hairy man thing". In 1818 the Watchman recorded the visit of a "Wild Man of the Woods". Ever since, hundreds of eyewitness accounts of a giant, elusive beast that stands upright on its hind legs have come flooding in.

One creature was seen trying to catch a calf in a farmer's field; a group of them used rocks to pound the walls of a remote cabin. More recently, four teenagers in rural America were startled when a huge hairy creature landed on the roof of their car.

Bigfoot takes a fresh look at the man-apes reported to exist in North America, South America, Australia, the Himalayas and Central Asia. It examines historic sightings as well as up-to-date ones - and poses the crucial question: are they really out there?

Well narrated and interesting.

Very well composed series of reports and evidence for hominid creatures around the world. I was expecting a lack of integrity but the author and narrator presented this very well

Well researched

Well researched and fascinating collection of accounts of encounters with mythical species. The author skillfully separates folklore from fact.

Performance keeps you engaged

The performance/narration is really good and keep you engaged, the research is very thorough to the point of being a bit boring at times but the first hand accounts are really good if you are a fan/believer or to be fair even skeptic of bigfoot

not many detailed encounters

Not essentially a bad book. its is a more scientific appraisal of the possibility of hominid apes on the planet. There are accounts but only very briefly explored
