Bigfoot - The Life and Times of a Legend

Zusammenfassung Beginning with nineteenth-century accounts of wildmen roaming the forests of America, the author treks to the Himalayas to reckon with the Abominable Snowman, then takes us to northern California in 1958, when reports of a hairy hominid loping through remote woodlands marked Bigfoot's emergence as a modern marvel.
