Staying Alive

Want to pick up a $4 or $5 copy of John Napier’s Bigfoot: The Yeti And Sasquatch in Myth and Reality ? Looking for that rare first edition of Curious Encounters (1985) for fifteen bucks? Trying to rundown one of Heuvelmans’ scarce books? I’d like to recommend someone that’s trying to keep those old cryptozoology books flowing into the hands of people, like you, who need them. You might want to check out Arcturus Books Inc.

Bob Girard has been selling used books for years, and now does it from Port St. Lucie, Florida. But like most old booksellers, he’s holding on by a thread.

Sometimes, if you want to keep the good books in this world, you have to help and support those booksellers that aren’t afraid to keep them in stock. I, therefore, am putting out the call to keep Arcturus Books alive. Buy a book from him immediately and certainly the next time you think about adding a volume, new or old, to your cryptozoology library.

Hey, if it wasn’t for Arcturus, where else could you find the first book from Michael Newton, recently of Encyclopedia of Cryptozoology fame? Arcturus has Newton’s 1979 book, Monsters, Mysteries and Man (listed under Michael “Newman”) for $5.00.

Loren Coleman About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct). Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015. Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
