Reviews
Gordon's book is a charming detour from typical science writing, and he applies scientific thinking to extraordinary circumstances with healthy skepticism.... He covers sasquatch lore with a thoroughness that is both surprising in volume and admirable in intent.--Patricia Balbon "SciStarter"
