Where Bigfoot walks : crossing the dark divide
1995
Book
"Where Bigfoot Walks is a dramatic narrative exploration not only of the phenomenon of Bigfoot but also of the nature of human belief, particularly the need to believe that something is out there beyond what we rationally know." "Awarded a Guggenheim to investigate the legends of Sasquatch, Robert Pyle trekked into the wilderness of the Dark Divide, where he discovered a giant fossil footprint; searched out Indians who told him of an outcast tribe, the Seeahtlks, who had not fully evolved into humans; attended Sasquatch Daze in British Columbia, where he met scientists, hunters, and others - even a standup comic - who have devoted their lives to Bigfoot (call 1-800-BIGFOOT if you spot one), and realized that "these guys don't want to find Bigfoot - they want to be Bigfoot.""-- Book jacket.
