Varmints: Mystery Carnivores of North America

by Chad Arment

Varmints is a cryptozoological survey of mystery carnivore folklore (stories and sightings) in North America. Black panthers, maned felines, giant polar bears, dwarf grizzlies, and many more alleged predators have been reported, though most are dismissed out-of-hand by wildlife officials. Cryptozoology researchers and enthusiasts alike will find cases worth exploring, and some tantalizing leads for future investigation. Additional cryptozoology titles available at CoachwhipBooks.com.

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.
