Cryptids & Contested Creatures

Panthers prowling English moors, enormous footprints in the Himalayan snow, serpents of impossible size in turbulent water, and silent predators with glowing eyes that vanish into the jungle. This illustrated compendium gathers more than forty of the world's most contested creatures and looks at what witnesses, naturalists, and skeptics have actually said about each.

Whether you are a skeptic, a believer, or simply a collector of the strange, this volume examines humanity's enduring fascination with the unknown and reminds us that the world is larger and stranger than we dare imagine.
