About the Book
Bigfoots ARE The Locals. They live here. They were here before we humans showed up on the continent and they will likely outlast us. This is a bigfoot book yet it probes much deeper than a simple treatment of the hackneyed question of Does Bigfoot Exist?Book Synopsis
Bigfoots ARE The Locals. They live here. They were here before we humans showed up on the continent and they will likely outlast us. This is a bigfoot book yet it probes much deeper than a simple treatment of the hackneyed question of Does Bigfoot Exist? This book delves into such questions as why bigfoots exist, why they behave as they do, and why they have not yet been, and may never be dragged into the spotlight of science and the media. And don't look to science for answers, because science is currently unequipped to shed any light on this profound anthropological mystery. The author's personal experiences in investigation and experimentation of the bigfoot hypothesis are chronicled. Frightening and humorous personal experiences are detailed in the manner of the genre we know of as the bigfoot book. We have a lot to learn about The Locals and there is even more we could learn from The Locals.

Review by Larry Hagedon
Most people, writing a Bigfoot book, take their pre-concieved beliefs and sort thru the available evidences and eyewitness accounts until they find sufficient support for those beliefs to fill a book. All inconveniently contrary evidences and accounts are discarded.
I believe nearly all health and diet books are written on the above principle and so are most of the Sasquatch books I have read. Thom Powell has done a better job than that with The Locals, available from Hancockhouse.com. Thom is obviously a man of science and an educator. He first lays down sound basic scientific principles. He then takes the available evidences and eyewitness accounts, whether he likes them or not, and applies the scientific principles to them. he does this in such a manner that we are allowed to form our own opinions as to the meanings of the evidence. He manages to do all this in a most interesting and readable writing style. The research and evidence collecting tips alone are worth much more than the price of the book. Tho you will not agree with everything found in it, this book will make you a better researcher. It is suitable to give as a Christmas present to skeptical friends and family. Highly recommended.
