Summary: Reports of Sasquatch in the Pacific Northwest
Review: Canadian newspaperman, John Green, beganing investigating reports of hairy, upright, apelike creatures in the late 1950's. This book was originally published in the late 1960's. Among the sightings discussed are some of the well-known, Sasquatch classics such as "The Albert Ostman story", "William Roe's sighting of a female Sasquatch on Mica Mountain in the 1950's" and other well known and lesser known sightings. Mr Green has personally investigated and interviewed witnesses in these cases and much more. This book provides a solid background of this subject from early sightings until the late 1960's. The Author worked with such well known investigators as Rene Dahinden, Bob Titmus, Dr Grover Krantz, and he also knew Roger Patterson. Mr Patterson's 1967 film of a reported female Sasquatch, in Bluff Creek, California is well known through out the world. This is also discussed in this book. This is a well written introduction to this subject by one the most reputable lay persons on this mystery. Readers are advised that Mr. Green has also written several other books on this subject subsquently, "The Year of the Sasquatch", "The Sasquatch File", and the encyclopedic, "Sasquatch, The Apes Among Us." This book is definetely one of the most important introductions to this subject, both for it's factual reporting and the amount of hands on investigation by the Author. It is a must own for anyone interested in this subject.

Review: This is a very good and informative book by an honest man with knowledge about the subject that he writes about. Somewhat long in tooth. I wish more from this author would be forthcoming.

Summary: Outsanding book . I'll give it more than a 5!
Review: What I like about this book that it gives you early history on bigfoot sightings and footprints in the Pacific N.West. I enjoyed reading the stories on the William Roe and Albert Ostman incidents which they both actually encountered with the Sasquatches in the early 1900s. For any one who wants to read books on Bigfoot. I highly recommend to buy this one. These creatures do actually live in the N.California, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia Forests. Like finding a needle in a haystack except the needle (or needles) keeps moving and moving. Very clever creatures. Lenny's Gold Country Bigfoot Outpost (Private) Center, N.California
