What is it about monsters that so terrifies us? Perhaps it's their supernatural nature? Their ability to disappear into the shadows and reappear without warning? Whatever the reason, tales of monsters have been with us since the dawn of time and show no sign of abating. In The Big Book of Monsters Vol I, Josh Nanocchio, acclaimed host of the popular YouTube channel What Lurks Beneath, has collected some of the most chilling, hair-raising, and downright unbelievable accounts of monster sightings from around the world.

Lowah, Alaska was a quiet, little town in the middle of nowhere—until workers sent by an American corporation arrived to reopen its long closed mine. Protests erupted, but they were nothing to what was coming next. No one knew the Sasquatch tribes in the woods surrounding the town had claimed the mine as their own until it was too late.

In this work on a subject too often dismissed as paranormal or disreputable, Jeffrey Meldrum gives us the first book on Sasquatch to be written by a scientist with impeccable academic credentials. He gives an objective look at the facts in a field mined with hoaxes and sensationalism. Meldrum reports on the work of a team of experts from a wide variety of fields who were assembled to examine the evidence for a large, yet undiscovered, North American primate. He reviews the long history of this mystery and explains all the scientific pros and cons in a clear and accessible style.

The Appalachians are an ancient and mysterious mountain range, whose peaks at one time rivaled the Himalayans. The mysteries of these mountains have been cataloged by Native American tribes and settlers alike. One of these mysteries is that Bigfoot inhabits these parts. Building off his book, Tracking the Stone Man: West Virginia's Bigfoot, Dr. Russell Jones, a certified master naturalist, lifelong outdoorsman, and longtime Bigfoot researcher, has put together one of the most complete examinations of these creatures in Appalachia with The Appalachian Bigfoot.

For more than a century, reports of a strange beast known as the Fouke Monster have circulated among the locals in southern Arkansas. Described as a large hairy man-like creature, it's said to haunt the vast Sulphur River Bottoms as it travels the secluded waterway known as Boggy Creek. Over the years, the creature has been seen by numerous witnesses including respected citizens, experienced hunters, famous musicians, and even a police officer. The encounters were often so shocking, they served as inspiration for the classic horror film, The Legend of Boggy Creek, by Charles B. Pierce.

Skeptic's Analysis of Weird America
- De Adrian en 11-23-20
De: Colin Dickey
Resumen del Editor
From the shrouded forests of the Pacific Northwest to off-the-wall cryptozoological conventions, one man searches high and low for the answer to the question: real or not, why do we want to believe?
Bigfoot is an instantly recognizable figure. Through the decades, this elusive primate has been featured in movies and books, and on coffee mugs, beer koozies, car polish, and CBD oil. Which begs the question: what is it about Bigfoot that's caught hold of our imaginations?
Journalist and self-diagnosed skeptic John O'Connor is fascinated by Sasquatch. Curious to learn more, he embarks on a quest through the North American wilds in search of Bigfoot, its myth and meaning. Alongside an eccentric cast of characters, he explores the zany and secretive world of "cryptozoology," tracking Bigfoot through ancient folklore to Harry and the Hendersons, while examining the forces behind our ever-widening belief in the supernatural. As O'Connor treks through the shrouded forests of the Pacific Northwest, listens to firsthand accounts, and attends Bigfoot conventions, he's left wondering—what happens when the lines between myth and reality blur? This heartfelt exploration of a cornerstone of American folklore unpacks why we believe in the things that we do, what that says about us, and how it shapes our world.

The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Historia
Tired of the pace and noise of life near London and longing for a better place to raise their young children, Mary J. MacLeod and her husband, George, encountered their dream while vacationing on a remote island in the Scottish Hebrides. Enthralled by its windswept beauty, they soon were the proud and startled owners of a near-derelict croft house - a farmer’s stone cottage - on “a small acre” of land. Mary assumed duties as the island’s district nurse.

When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Good Author, He Hates Half of His Audience
First off, this author, John O'Connor, sounds like a very fun guy to be around. If he wanted to go to lunch today, I would certainly go with him. He's clearly smart, well read, funny in a sarcastic way. I'm pretty sure most people like him when they meet him. I related well to his temperature regulation. It's always a point of contention with my wife when I'm cold and she's hot. John and I agree on the thermostat.
The book was not quite what I expected and was what I expected at the same time. I love Bigfoot so I am predisposed to be interested in, and to like new information about the undefeated hide and seek champion. This book is more about the hunt than about the creature. The descriptions of the hunts, the hunters and the like are entertaining and again, you would not be bored at a Bigfoot hunt. I was hoping for a little more discussion about any "evidence" and examples of found species, etc. That's my personal preference, so it's not really a criticism. Also, common sense tells you Bigfoot doesn't exist, so there's not a large amount of "evidence".
The bad part; this Bigfoot book is almost a diatribe against Republicans, Christians, conservatives in general, and Donald Trump. There is literally no place in this book's subject matter for Mr. O'Connor to rail against half of the US population and insult and demean the millions of Christians who exist and have existed. Mr. O'Connor is saying that he is far more intelligent and superior to all those millions and to half of the population of the United States. He doesn't care for Trump: he should write a book about Trump. He thinks Christians are stupid people: write a book about how miracles can't happen. (That's why it's called faith). He could be right, but how does that fit in a Bigfoot book?
If you can find an edited version of the book written by this intolerant bigot, I would recommend it. It was fun.

Interesting but perhaps not essential
Interesting look at Bigfoot myth making with good historical context and some tinges of Covid paranoia and political disinformation. These areas are fascinating in their ties to Bigfoot and I’d have liked even more discussion of the relationship. I do think there are some pacing issues—there’s a very long chapter that is essentially a birding trip that really slows down the narrative. I do get the parallel he is drawing between Bigfoot and the previously-assumed extinct bird, but portions of that chapter definitely drag. I don’t know that this book adds much if you already have done some reading into the larger bigfoot culture. The author’s recounting of primary research in the field is interesting and fun to hear about though. The narration is excellent.

Thin
The Trump references did not bother me; there is a clearly a lot of overlap between MAGA and BF communities. But too many tangents and quotes to compensate for thin body of material.

Interesting story, however...
I really enjoy books such as this and overall enjoyed this one as well. It offered a lot of interesting stories, what I suppose to be solid research, and the author provided some interesting ideas/theories as well. As far as the subject matter goes, I really enjoyed the book.
However, the author also used this book as a platform to bash Donald Trump. I don't personally care for Trump, but the author took shots at him at least 10 times (not an exaggeration). While I may agree with some or many of the statements, I didn't feel this was a proper place for them to be made. There were so many in fact, that I felt it to be over the top and quite tiresome.

Something Different
If you are looking for a book with encounters and stories, new findings and theories on the beast... this is not really it. This is more a look at "Bigfooters" and less of a look at bigfoot. The author really digs into what drives people who are believer's, "know-ers" and those in between. There is a good linear history of the beast in society. From early tales, to Ray Wallace, to the PG film and all the way up to Cliff and Bobo. Those brand new to the subject and those well entrenched will find something to like here. I especially liked the bit about the Ivory Billed Woodpecker... very interesting. Yes, the author does not like Trump and brings him up about 10 times. A few of the times, it made sense to do so actually! The rest, well could have been left out but it did not bother me. I can read something I dont agree with and not throw out everything the author is saying. Its worth a read/listen. The narrator is good, the story moves along, seems well researched, has jokes, and if you have an open mind it will challenge how you think about the subject... nothing wrong with that.

Interesting Perspective
Some interesting information, also credible. The book would have been more enjoyable if the narrator (I believe author) left out his often uninformed political narrative. No one wants to pay to hear that!!

tried to enjoy objectively
I've never left a review....Auther uses this as a vector to degrade Trump and conservatives. He points out how he has recognized "bigfooters" are predominantly conservative, then spouts political hate at every chance he gets. He entergects frequently when there is not an obvious chance.

Leave out the politics.
Good book with good research about Sasquatch. Unfortunately the author can’t stop interjecting politics into a subject that has nothing to do with it. It’s incredibly annoying. I actually agree with his politics but it has nothing to do with the subject matter.

should be called hypocrisy
the author makes a bog deal about not judging the people telling there story's. but has no problem judging everybody else that he comes in contact with in his travels . about stuff that has been proven wrong .was hard to listen to

useless drivel - Don't waste your time or money.
As a fan of the genre I was disappointed with this title to say the least. I wish I had used one of my account credits to purchase it so I could return it. It is truly terrible.
