Has any one read any new Bigfoot books lately?
I am always looking for something new for my collection. Recently, even though its not a BF book, I found a signed copy of Goodall's book - The Decent of Man.

Not recently Most of the newer books I have found to just be a rehash of older material or new age bs

Have you read "Sasquatch in British Columbia" published threw Hancock House, by Chris Murphy and some other guy. It came out in 2012, two years ago.

Not yet. There are a few places in town that carry Hancock books. I'll take a look for it.
Is it similar to other BF books that simply report on incidents or does it outline active work being done in the field like "Woodknock's" does?
I would think that what with the Finding Bigfoot program people would be more interested in reading current activities vice things that occurred 20,30,40 or more years ago and have been rehashed to death. Honestly how often do we have to revisit Ostman and Roe in BC?

I finally got my copy of Woodknocks. Great book. Really puts you right where the action is. If you don't have it yet you gotta get it!

I do admit that Woodknocks does look interesting but I may have found an even more interesting book. It's titled Sasquatch For Sale: Death, DNA and Duplicity which is an objective book that not only follows the authors (Mike Greene) journey but also scrutinizes the: Sierra Kills Incident, Kecthums Extremely Faulty DNA Study, Dyer's Hoaxes, Olympic Project, Falcon Project, "the BFRO's greedy, unethical leadership", Todd Standing's Claims and more. This looks like an interesting read which I am hoping to pruchase in the future. Here is the Amazon Link: www.amazon.com/dp/1499734506/tag=cryptomundo08-20/Here is the Cryptomundo link: cryptomundo.com/bigfoot-report/sasquatch-for-sale/*And yes, Mike Greene was the researcher who filmed "Squeaky" in North Carolina.

I have read the Sasquatch for Sale and I found the portions where Mr. Greene described his explorations across the continent interesting. But a vast portion of the book seems to be axe grinding against the BFRO and Mr. Moneymaker. His pursuit and belief in the individuals who stated that they did not know what a bigfoot was when they shot it(them) is laughable. Who on this continent in the 21st century has not heard of a bigfoot? And, Ketchum's DNA analysis pointing to a half human - half whatever from a piece of improperly handled flesh that had been exposed to the elements for how many months? The guy who shot it was poaching. Why he did not take the entire infant that was supposedly shot is unclear. If it was a deer or a Mtn. sheep he would have taken it right? So why not this thing which would have been worth its weight in gold? There was also a rumour that Ketchum had paid someone to falsify reports. The whole mess stinks like boat load of dead fish at low tide and for Mr. Greene to accept their story on the fact that they passed a polygraph, which can be beaten, is just not smart on his part.
In comparing the two books, my money is on Wood Knocks and Tossed Rocks.
