The Locals: A Contemporary Investigation of the Bigfoot/Sasquatch Phenomenon
$19.95
I bought this book several years ago, and find it a seminal text on Large Hominid research. I have been interested in the Sasquatch phenomena since 1976, and have been an active investigator for the past 33 years. I have tracked, these elusive giants, cast footprints, heard vocalizations and had interaction with them, although I have yet to see one. I have interviewed hundreds on eyewitnesses and believe a large percentage of them. I think the information brought forth in this book is vital, and SEMINAL to the Field. Powell has raised the bar on research material on these elusive creatures. I would not normally buy a book of this title, but I recognized the author's name from calls I made a few years before the book was released, from calls I received from the author in response to second hand accounts I reported to the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization. At the time, the author was the website/reporting curator for the BFRO, so having been impressed with him over the phone, I bought his book, and have read it twice and referred it to many other times. I have recommended the book to established researchers and those just becoming interested in the field. I find the information vital for a researcher. Along with the works of Dr Krantz, Dr. Meldrum, Greene, Coleman, and Robert Morgan, I find all of these the cornerstone of my Bigfoot library! I feel this book is a must have for any serious person wanting to research or understand these local neighbors we have in the forests around our suburbs and deep, deep in the wilderness. We are the intruders, to these local giants in their natural habitat, the forests and thickets around our rural and suburban homes. I think this book would be great for the skeptic as well, since it explains in detail the questions always brought up by honest skeptics and die-hard debunkers. Healthy skepticism is vital to any researcher, yet to me a fool is someone who has made his mind up about a subject without bothering to dig deep into the research material. If you are throughly versed in the literature and have spoken to eyewitnesses, and think it is a crock, I respect you. If you know near nothing about the subject having never interviewed at least 2 dozen eyewitnesses, never hit the bush, nor read a dozen books or so, you are a fool to have your mind set in concrete that this subject is a myth and foolish. Heck Teddy Roosevelt had an extremely terrifying encounter, and told another man's story in one of his books. If you know anything about Teddy Roosevelt the man was a fearless LION! A great read, give it a try!
