Description
From the serpentine "Champ" of Lake Champlain to the venerable "Nessie" of Loch Ness, extraordinary - and unexplained - creatures of the deep have been reported in sightings throughout the centuries. Now, two of the world's leading cryptozoological authorities provides a globetrotting field guide to when, where and what kind of mysterious aquatic beasts have gripped the public - and sometimes the scientific imagination. Filled with comprehensive drawings, classifications and maps their book offers an invaluable and unusual resource for the intrepidly curious to investigate these sightings firsthand or to simply enjoy the fascinating accounts that others have given.
Reviews
"I suggest that before you conclude that lake monsters and sea serpents are all nonsense, you examine the information in this superb compilation ... The scope of the work is monumental."
