Publisher Description
The ultimate quest for the world's most mysterious creatures
The Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, the Abominable Snowman -- these are the names of the elusive beasts that have caught the eye and captured the imaginations of people around the world for centuries. Recently, tales of these "monsters" have been corroborated by an increase in sightings, and out of these legends a new science has been born: cryptozoology -- the study of hidden animals.
Cryptozoology A to Z, the first encyclopedia of its kind, contains nearly two hundred entries, including cryptids (the name given to these unusual beasts), new animal finds, and the explorers and scientists who search for them. Loren Coleman, one of the world's leading cryptozoologists, teams up with Jerome Clark, editor and author of several encyclopedias, to provide these definitive descriptions and many never-before-published drawings and photographs from eyewitnesses' detailed accounts. Full of insights into the methods of these scientists, exciting tales of discovery, and the history and evolution of this field, Cryptozoology A to Z is the most complete reference ever of the newest zoological science.
Customer Reviews
Full of History and Information
One of if not the best book on the history of cryptozoology. Starting at the very beginning and ending at modern times, cryptozoology is at a end considering that earth is mostly discovered so it’s a very informative book on the history that is mostly debated.
Amazing
Great book
Devoid of Content
Unfortunately most of the book is full of names of researchers and to a lesser extent, terms coined in the field of cryptozoology. Very few actual pages contain any information on cryptids.
