Cryptozoology: Science & Speculation

First published in 2004, Science and Speculation examines the rationale, purpose, and methodology of this discovery science. This is followed by several chapters discussing various mystery animals and zoological folklore that are of interest to cryptozoological researchers, illustrating how an investigator might examine a reported mystery animal from a biological-folkloric perspective.

About the author

Two of the first "real" authors I read when I was young were Alistair MacLean and Rex Stout, and those remain favorites. Today, for personal reading, there are several mystery authors I enjoy; for non-fiction, I jump around a bit depending on what I'm interested in. (At the moment, suiseki and dragonflies, go figure.)
In 2004, I self-published my first print-on-demand book, on cryptozoology. Since then, I've added several other of my own titles, a fair number by other authors, and a whole lot of reprints (both public domain and licensed). Titles can be seen at www.coachwhipbooks.com.
I currently live in Ohio.

Reviews

[Paula Kramer · Rating 3 out of 5]

Another dysfunctional family story which can be very intriguing. The author's use of language forces you to slow down to take in all the meaning of each sentence.
