The most comprehensive work on the history of sasquatch in BC, this book includes the earliest fossilized indications of the existence of the creature, every documented sighting and experience, along with complete outlines of research undertaken by both pioneers in the field and modern-day scientists. Historical photos and a 32-page color section. A great reference and also a fascinating read.</p><p>Early reports in British Columbia were the first to call attention to the possible existence of sasquatch, and such reports have persisted for over two hundred years. This work covers the earliest history of the province to the present day, and draws upon the findings of all major sasquatch researchers in British Columbia and information reported in the press and other media. It also includes important sasquatch-related events that involved BC researchers and their quest to resolve the phenomenon. Several of the great pioneers in the field of sasquatch studies have now passed away. Who they were and their legacy have been provided as both a tribute and a historical reference. This work is intended to be a major reference for the history of the sasquatch in British Columbia. However, it is also a fascinating read for those simply interested in the subject.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Hancock House has released another winner by Murphy/Steenburg. Just finished reading it..best part, pages that lie flat without closing. Then on to the wealth of information contained in the well illustrated pages. A section even includes many color prints, besides all the black and white photos laced liberally throughout the book..a good many of them original and never viewed before. There are many listings of sightings throughout the province, starting with the beginning fossil footprints until the late 1700's when First Nations people are said to fear unusual creatures. The historical reports are a wealth of information, plus the views of many First Americans. Not only are reports of Sasquatch covered, but any event in British Columbia of importance has been addressed along with articles concerning many of the contributors, besides important media coverage. The remainder of the book has a vast store of well researched information filled reports of tracks and sightings of the Sasquatch down through the ages. One thing I noted is that they are extremely well documented with sources and credits. Finally there is a statistical listing by date and then by location order for easy reference followed by a good index. A final advert by Hancock House has a useful and handy listing of all the Sasquatch titles available. Murphy has put his almost 20 years of research to good use. -- Ray Crowe</p> <p> </p> <p>This is an excellent book, written by Christopher L. Murphy in association with Thomas Steenburg, basically chronicling for the first time most of the reports from the Western province of our neighbors to the North. It takes reports not only from books by John Green, Steenburg and John Bindernagel, but also from The Bigfoot Casebook and Who's Watching You?. But it also compiles reports from John Green and Steenburg's personal Case Files, as well as from the BFRO database. The book covers reports and events from 1799 to as recent as April 2011. It covers not just reports, but also major events, such as important milestones in research such as The Skookum Cast, the Sasquatch Summit, the opening of the Meet The Sasquatch exhibit in Vancouver and also in Pocatello, Idaho, and notable passings and beginnings in research with different researchers and scientists. If I were to give this book a rating on a scale from 1-10, I would give it a solid 9 1/2. Absolutely terrific book. -- Henry May</p><br>
