1st printing. Small 4to. 307pp. Illus. Notes. Literature Cited. Index. Maps. 5-line presentation from Bindernagel to a collector. Laid in is the publisher's folded color promo. This is one of the better books on the subject of Bigfoot / sasquatch. Writing from a logical, scientific point of view, Bindernagel tackles the problem of why science is reluctant to take seriously and study the sasquatch. The author, a biologist on Vancouver Island, passed away in early 2018. Fine copy. No longer. Very scarce now signed.

“The Discovery of the Sasquatch offers important understanding of both the strengths and weaknesses of Science as it is practiced in the modern world… a book that will, I believe, take its place beside the works of Thomas Kuhn and Michael Polanyi as a lasting contribution to philosophy of science."
— David A. Walsh, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Psychology, University of Southern California
"John Bindernagel has given us a closely argued, cogent, convincing explanation why the evidence has not brought widespread acknowledgment that sasquatches are extant. In doing so he underscores how impressive that evidence actually is.”
— Henry Bauer, Ph.D., Dean Emeritus of Arts & Sciences, Professor Emeritus of Chemistry & Science Studies, Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University
“A very engaging read, especially the combination of detailed compelling descriptions of recent encounters with something very strange and apparently inexplicable, and the rules we use for constructing knowledge using the scientific method.”
— Martin Weinstein, Ph.D., Adjunct Professor, School of Resource and Environmental Management, Simon Fraser University
