<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Join acclaimed author and outdoorsman Lyle Blackburn as he traverses woods and waterways, delves into dusty archives, and interviews a host of credible eyewitnesses in search of one of the South's most enduring mysteries... the Southern Sasquatch<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Countless reports from credible individuals suggest that something shocking may be stalking the woods of the southern United States-something massive, bipedal, and covered in hair. Tales of these Southern Sasquatch creatures-such as the one made famous by the 1972 horror movie <em>The Legend of Boggy Creek</em>-date back to the very origins of Deep South history and are reported even today.</p><p> </p><p>While Boggy Creek may be the most famous case, the infamous waterway is only the tip of a much broader mystery, one that spills into the surrounding states and beyond. From Arkansas and Oklahoma down to Texas, over to Florida and all the southern states in between, chilling accounts and compelling evidence indicate that a breed of these mysterious, man-like creatures has been successfully hiding in the shadowy foothills, piney woods, and murky swamplands of these areas. </p><p>Join acclaimed author and outdoorsman Lyle Blackburn as he traverses woods and waterways, delves into dusty archives, and interviews a host of credible eyewitnesses in search of one of the South's most enduring mysteries... the Southern Sasquatch</p><p> </p><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Lyle Blackburn shows his cards once more as not only an esteemed researcher in the field of cryptozoology, but also as an adept and careful storyteller-a modern day folklorist in his own right...Mr. Blackburn guides us into an unforgettable tapestry of chilling, first-hand experiences and long-term, respected research...With his trademark down to earth storytelling and the rich history and research to back up those stories, this offering by Lyle Blackburn should not be overlooked." - D.C. McGannon, <em> The Monster Guys </em></p><p>"Lyle is a skilled and atmospheric writer: he sets the scene, draws the reader into the stories, and provides captivating case after case. There is another reason why this book is an important one for Cryptozoology: Lyle is someone who spends a great deal of time in the woods, swamps and wild places in the South. In other words, most of the material presented in the book comes from Lyle's own, personal investigations and interviews - which is always a good thing." - Nick Redfern, <em>Mysterious Universe</em></p><p>"I appreciated the solid descriptions of famous accounts like Honobia, Area X and the Myakka ape account. I've not seen these done in a popular book. Therefore, this book serves, as the author's others, as a useful comprehensive source for the subject and a must-have reference for anyone interested in cryptozoology." - Sharon Hill, <em>Doubt and About</em></p><p>"[Lyle Blackburn's] highly detailed 294-page tome covered Bigfoot reports from the southern states with great precision and his 'endnotes' (references cited) and index makes this volume a gem of level headed scholarship." - <em>Bigfoot Times</em></p><p><br></p><br>
