Beyond The Fray: Bigfoot - A New Book On Sasquatch





What you see above are the front and back covers of the new book from Shannon LeGro. Its full title: Beyond the Fray: Bigfoot. Shannon very generously mailed me a review copy of the book a couple of weeks ago. And, I'm very pleased she did! This is an excellent study of the Bigfoot phenomenon; a book that really stands out. There's a very good reason as to why this is an important book. Over the years, numerous books have been written on the subject of Bigfoot. I should know, I've written three books on the subject, LOL! Beyond the Fray: Bigfoot is not your average Sasquatch-themed book, however. I'll explain why.

Most books on the subject of Bigfoot focus on the history of the mystery, old case-files, theories for what the creatures might be, and controversial photos. Of course, there's nothing wrong with that at all. In fact, it's all vital if we are to solve the puzzle. With her new book, however, Shannon has done something slightly different (but much needed too). What she has done is to let the witnesses themselves tells their stories - and without any interruption whatsoever. As I note in the "Praise for Beyond the Fray" section of the book: "Shannon LeGro's new book is almost unique, in the sense that it is 100 percent focused on incredible eyewitness testimony. Shannon gets right to the heart of what it means to see a Bigfoot!"

The opening chapter comes from a man named David. His account is significantly different to many cases. A lot of people in the field of Cryptozoology take the view that the Bigfoot creatures are largely gentle animals. David, however, quickly came to the conclusion that his life was potentially in danger, when it came to his encounter. In his own words: "...had I remained there, things more than likely would have taken a violent turn."

Ever had a Bigfoot in your gun-sights? Probably not! That's not the case for Kris, though, who found himself in that very situation while hunting in Wisconsin. The story is a tense one, to say the least. Moving on, you don't hear too much about Bigfoot in Nevada. But, Shannon shares with us just such a notable case. Add to that, an account of a Dogman and one of a Dire Wolf, and you have an incredible body of data of the monstrous type. I should stress this is just the start of things: Beyond the Fray: Bigfoot is packing with absorbing - and sometimes chilling - accounts of face to face encounters with a Bigfoot. Or maybe even more than one. This book is not just vital for Bigfoot enthusiasts. It also demonstrates how encounters with the creatures so often change lives forever.

With that all said, here - below - is the information on the book from the publisher:

 
"Be mindful of what lies beyond the wood line." 
It’s argued that the recent search for Bigfoot officially began on September 21, 1958, when journalist, Andrew Genzoli of the Humboldt Times, featured a letter from a reader about loggers in Northern California concerning large footprints they’d found at a work site. What began as a fun article turned into an almost instant national sensation and since stories of the elusive creature have poured in, not just from California and the Pacific Northwest, but from around the world.

BEYOND THE FRAY: BIGFOOT features some of these personal eyewitness accounts and terrifying encounters, most taken from the transcripts of the popular podcast, INTO THE FRAY.  These stories are unique and scary. They will leave you wondering what this creature is and will no doubt give you pause before you cross the wood line and enter the woods.

Bigfoot and the FBI...



You may have seen the news about how in the 1970s the FBI examined what some thought might have been Bigfoot hairs. But, which turned out to be from a deer LOL.

However, there is a much more interesting Bigfoot-type case, which also involves the FBI and which is connected to the worlds of controversy and conspiracy.

A strange and savage body, the FBI in hot pursuit, the Vietnam War, body-bags and smuggling: someone needs to turn this into a movie!

Here's the link to my new article on the subject.

On Thursday night of last week, good mate Lyle Blackburn gave a great new lecture at the Bedford, Texas Library on Bigfoot, the Dogman, the Chupacabra, Nessie, Mothman and more. A great night! You can find my review of Lyle's presentation at this link, and here are a few of my photos from the night:

Paranormal Books To Review

Having been back in the UK for 2 weeks and then having to deal with an infected tooth this week that spread, I've got behind on a few new book reviews I have to write. But, I'll get there! Here are the books:

It's Article Time Again...



1: An article from me on the controversial story of Bob Lazar and Area 51. Lazar's claims usually place people into two camps: those who think that Lazar's story is true and those who think it's bullshit. But, what if there was a third theory/explanation, one which involves mind-games, hypnosis and mind-altering drugs? Here's the article.


2: A two-part article on the controversial issue of Bigfoot in the U.K. Here's part-1 and here's part-2.



3: The issue of man-made (rather than alien-built) UFOs.

4: Possibly the weirdest Man in Black story of all.

5: UFOs seen around military and government installations.

6: The Moon-base that never was.

Is Bigfoot A Deadly Mimic?


That's the question I ask in a new article, which starts like this:

One of the lesser known aspects of the Bigfoot phenomenon is the reported ability of the creatures to mimic the distressing cries of a human baby. Almost certainly, this is done to try and lure concerned people deep into the woods. Of course, the big question is: why? We could speculate that the Bigfoot are on the hunt for a tasty meal or several – namely us. After all, most people, if they heard an abandoned baby crying in the woods, would quickly seek out the baby and bring it to safety. Perhaps the Bigfoot know this and, as a result, are not beyond finding ingenious and sinister ways of drawing us to them – and for the worst outcome possible.
