The Secret History of Bigfoot: Field Notes on a North American Monster by John O'Connor
mysterious
reflective

3.75
O'Connor spent a year researching Bigfoot, from reading historical documents, literature, and contemporary articles to attending gatherings of Bigfooters. He discusses the mythology, geography, sociology, and philosophy of people who have reported sitings and belong to groups that search for the mysterious creatures. O'Connor also went on hiking and camping trips to areas with reported Bigfoot sitings and interviewed experts in wildlif and ecosystems in these places. He treats everyone fairly, while acknowledging the biases and lack of conclusive evidence that fail to discourage believers in the Bigfooter community.
