American Cryptids

One of the important things that the author does is ask the question 'What is considered evidence?' If you want to prove that something exists then you need to have good evidence backing you up but what kind of evidence? Photos? Video? Eye-witness testimony? Also, how reliable is the evidence?

The author talks about Bigfoot, how it's seen in all states of the U.S. and how it might be related to a very early form of hominid. Then he examines each state of the union. For each state he first gives some basic history, what year it was made a state, it's capitol, it's population, it's area and other information.

A few of the creatures he notes include the Wampus Cat, The Whipple Creek Screamer, the Ozark Howler, the Thunderbird, Cannibal Dwarves, the Melon Head Cannibals, Hogzilla, the Green Clawed Beast, the Snallygaster, the Wendigo, the New Jersey Devil, the Loveland Frogman and a lot of others.

It's not only an educational book but it's fun to read, especially with some of the names of the creatures.
