4.0 out of 5 stars It's ok more on Native American clothing
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2022

I love bigfoot and heard about this book on Coast to Coast. It is good for the short stories. However each chapter begins with what the Native Americans wear, eat and live in. I am Navajo and was excited to read about NM but I would prefer stories about bigfoot not so much what people wear. I would recommend the book it is easy reading.

Finally a book that details each state’s history, Indian tribe and unique cryptid! This was a very absorbing book that was hard to put down. I enjoyed the writing style and the descriptive narrative.

3.0 out of 5 stars State Guide with Brief Sightings
Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2021
Verified Purchase
I had high hopes for this book. I thought it would be filled with some great encounter stories and searches for creatures. Instead, this is a guide of cryptids in each state. There is a brief overview of the state and the resident Native American tribe. Then a few creatures are noted and the chapters end with a Bigfoot sighting. The sightings are all of the "I saw something, but not sure what it was variety." Nothing spooky or intriguing. After reading a number of other books about incredible encounters, this book is very tame by comparison.

2.0 out of 5 stars 51 sections, 51 types of big foot
Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2024
Verified Purchase
While this book was interesting for learning about the different Native American Tribes in each state, it wasn't very informative about Cryptids.
Each section contained 1-3 Cryptids from each state, with 1-3 of them being Bigfoot encounters or different types of Sasquatch. While I enjoy learning about Sasquatch lore and encounters, I was expecting to read more about local tales of creatures other than Bigfoot.
This Authors book about World Cryptids is a very interesting read, but this one? Not so much.

It was like reading a textbook about all the states in the US. You read some facts about each state , then the cryptic creatures that could be found in the state. Worth a look.
