Author: J. Robert Alley
This book is a wonderful walk-through of sightings in and around the Ketchikan area in the Alaskan wilderness. Many sightings are being written up for the first time, but some are from other contributors such as John Green and Thomas Steenburg. The book primarily focuses on Ketchikan, but it also discusses sightings on Vancouver Island and western British Columbia. Such topics as Indian legends are discussed, as well as swimming Sasquatches, Sasquatches seen on the shore of the Pacific, footprints, bones that are found and thought to be giant Indians' bones, sounds, traces of hair and other topics. Alley doesn't discuss his own sighting, but it is discussed in the Chris Murphy book Meet The Sasquatch. Alley also includes a field guide to Pacific Coastal Sasquatch, as well as a summary list of Southeast Alaskan reports and B.C. Coastal reports. He also includes a bibliography of recommended books on the topic. This book is wonderfully and excellently written, and is absolutely highly recommended. It can be purchased for $14.95 at www.hancockhouse.com.
