In 2000, Chris embarked on a project to assemble a comprehensive pictorial presentation on the sasquatch. This initiative led to publication (Hancock House Publishers) of his book Meet the Sasquatch (written in association with John Green and Thomas Steenburg), and his 2004/05 sasquatch exhibit at the Vancouver (BC) Museum.

In due course, Chris wrote a supplemental update section to Roger Patterson’s book, which was provided in a republished edition (Hancock House Publishers) of the entire book under the title, The Bigfoot Film Controversy. The following year, Chris updated his Ohio book, again with his two previous associates, and it was published in 2006 by Hancock House under the title, Bigfoot Encounters in Ohio: Quest for the Grassman.

In 2005, Chris’ sasquatch exhibit traveled to the Museum of Mysteries in Seattle, where it was displayed for five months. In June of the following year, it opened at the Museum of Natural History in Pocatello, Idaho (Idaho State University), where is was shown for 15 months.

In 2008, Chris completed his book, Bigfoot Film Journal: A Detailed Account of the Patterson/Gimlin Film Circumstances and Aftermath. It was published by Hancock House that year.

During this time, Chris updated his book Meet the Sasquatch, which was republished in 2010 under the title Know the Sasquatch: Sequel and Update to Meet the Sasquatch (Hancock House Publishers).

In 2011, Chris got together with Barry Blount and re-explored the famous story of “Jacko” the ape-boy, who was alleged to have been captured near Yale, BC, in 1884. This led to the publication of, Yale and the Strange Story of Jacko the Ape-boy, (Hancock House Publishers) later that year.

Also during 2011, Chris decided to compile a book on sasquatch incidents and sasquatch history in British Columbia. He teamed up with Thomas Steenburg and in 2012 they produced Sasquatch in British Columbia: A Chronology of Incidents and Important Events (Hancock House Publishers).

In May 2012, Chris’ exhibit opened at the Yale Historic Site — Creighton House Museum, Yale, BC. On opening day, a book debut was held for Sasquatch in British Columbia. The exhibit ran to October 2012 and has subsequently been extended, by popular demand, to run for the entire 2013 season.

During the last 20 years, Chris has worked in conjunction with all of the major Pacific Coast researchers. He has provided many presentations at conferences and has appeared in television documentaries.

Chris wishes to acknowledge and thank the many great people who have provided information, photographs, and assistance to him in all of his sasquatch-related activities over the last twenty years. The primary contributors are shown here.

Where applicable, a “More Info” button is provided which contains the full information on the subject provided in Chris Murphy’s book, Know the Sasquatch. An Adobe Reader is required to access the information.

Chris wishes to particularly acknowledge and thank John Green for sharing his photographs and providing his knowledge on the sasquatch issue over the past 20 years. John has been the major contributor for the material presented here.
