Bigfoot; The Yeti and Sasquatch in Myth and Reality

Bigfoot; The Yeti and Sasquatch in Myth and Reality by Napier, John Russell. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780525066583.

Bigfoot is my collective name for the giant-sized man-like creatures that are believed to inhabit the boreal forests of north-west America and in the snowfields of the Himalayas. I am using the American Indian name Sasquatch for the Bigfoot in British Columbia, across the 49th parallel in the north-west states of the USA and in Northern California. In the Himalayas the creature is called the Abominable Snowman or the Yeti. Although Sasquatches and Yetis differ considerably in detail of their structure and habits, both are, very broadly speaking, man-like inasmuch as they are said to walk on two legs and are credited with a human shape. The footprints of both geographical varieties are indubitably big - hence the name Bigfoot.
