Strange & Mysterious Beasts

Strange & Mysterious Beasts


I was told that it was probably a good idea not to reveal all of the contents of the new book. Fair enough. It is 324 pages with lots of photographs.  If you have read one of my previous books then I will point out that this new look at the chupacabra is expanded on.  I have managed to draw some conclusions on certain previously unidentified beasts. 

I am guessing that the conclusions in the chapter on the Shunka Warak'in and the famous stuffed and mounted specimen are going to really upset some cryptozoologists.

In High Strangeness and UFO Contact? I looked at the faults in Ufology and how the subject needed drastic overhauling and I do the same here regarding mystery animal research which seems to be full of charlatans and liars out to make money rather than look for the truth. I try to give anyone approaching the subject matter some advice and guidelines but 'cryptozoology' and 'cryptozoologist' are two words they ought not to use.

Strange & Mysterious Beasts is the smaller format book while Mysterious & Strange Beasts is the standard larger A4 format.

IGNORE the "only ships from North America" as that is just a site message error

I need to point out that, much though I really do want to avoid this, US taxes are not leaving me much in the way of profit from sales.  I really do not want to increase book prices since I think that at the moment they are fair (considering what a purchaser gets and the amount of my work that gets plagiarized).  I am told that it has to be an option, however, I have until 1st February, 2018 to decide.

How Big Is The USA CE3K/AE File?

To be honest I never count how manyt reports I have in any one file -I do not collect them like stamps.

There is a smaller folder but this is the main one...

1900-2019 and these do not include all the abductions "by Grays" cases since most of those can be dismissed.

The worrying thing is that almost 75% of reports were never inmvestigated.  Newsclipping reports were taken as factual and everything after that is just repeat, repeat and repeat. No investigation. Potentially a great deal of information lost.  I even had information on US cases that the Centre for UFO Studies did not know about.

Look at the folder.  What have we lost due to, initially, ufologists refusing to even look at CE3K/AE reports and then prejudices -yet the Hills and Walton have had their accounts repeated ad infinitum.
