Omschrijving

After ten books, it's finally the end of the saurian trail. Newspapers of the Old West frequently chronicled encounters with large, reptilian creatures that sound suspiciously like remnant dinosaurs and which align with some modern-day cryptid encounters. This volume gets down to the nitty-gritty to explore which of those stories were true, revisiting classic cases like the Tombstone Thunderbird and its missing photograph with new information. Newly discovered articles also provide ancillary evidence for the Crosswicks Monster, the giant serpent of Pecos Pueblo, plus photographic proof of Idaho Bill's mysterious big cat, while other new discoveries can potentially put to rest tall tales of dinosaurs in Death Valley and Gowrows in the Ozarks.

As you explore brand new cases in the pages ahead, you'll ask yourself: Did the disturbed bones of a mastodon in the Montana badlands harbor a vengeful spirit? How did a mysterious meteor shower over California's Capay Valley relate to sightings of giant lizards and hairy humanoids? Where did the Granby Idol go after being unearthed in Colorado? Did an earthquake unleash the monster of Elizabeth Lake? Do tales of the Owens Lake Monster sinking a silver-laden steamer hold water? Was New Mexico once home to a tiny but deadly viper known as el pichu-cuate? How did a short horror film from 2010 spawn tales of pterodactyls massacring a Spanish wagon train in 1878?

And finally, did Samuel Hubbard's hunt for a petrified giant ruin the credibility of the dinosaur petroglyph of Havasupai Canyon?
