"Michael's book presents a captivating look into the world of Bigfoot research, with all the good, the bad, and the ridiculous. IT'S AN ABSOLUTE PAGE TURNER." DEREK RANDLES This well written and cynical book travels from the glaciers of Bella Coola, BC, to the Everglades of Florida, from the remote wilderness of the Manicouagan Meteor Crater in Quebec to the high Sierras of California on the author's 20 year journey to prove the existence of Bigfoot. He has captured the fascinating "Squeaky Thermal ' video (see Finding Bigfoot episode "Compelling Evidence") and encountered footprints, tree breaks, screams in the night, as well as opportunists, fakes, frauds, overblown egos, naive tree huggers, con men and women and a few honest researchers along the way . Go inside the Ketchum DNA debacle, Rick Dyer's never- ending hoax, Todd Standing's Photoshop efforts, the implausible Falcon Project, Don Young's "Big Phil", and the authors' intimate relationships with Justin Smeja, the infamous Sierra killer, Derek Randles and his Olympic Project, the BFRO's greedy unethical leadership and philanthropist Wally Hersom who tried so hard to make so much possible.
