Book Synopsis

This is the story of what it is really like to search for the most elusive animal in North America, an animal that clearly does not want to be found. Join author Michael Mayes and the men and women of the North American Wood Ape Conservancy on their two-decades-long quest to discover the truth behind the greatest mystery of the natural world.

"The events detailed in this book provide some of the best reasons to be hopeful that a resolution to the Sasquatch mystery is close at hand.

"What you're about to read is a meticulously documented collection of observations made by people-academics, wildlife professionals, and scientists, among others-whom I consider to be among the most reliable individuals to have ever pursued the Sasquatch...

"When the day comes that people say 'They proved that the Sasquatch exists, ' you, the reader, probably won't have to wonder who 'they' are. You will have already met them right here in the pages of this book."- from the Foreword by Matt Pruitt
