Rightly a classic of the weird, this is a wonderful introduction to American cryptozoology, and a good reference for someone who just needs to refresh on those old well-known stories; covers everything from sewer alligators to lake monsters, and does a good job with style, and the charts at the back giving locations and references for weird things are interesting and useful. When he goes beyond standard cryptozoo stuff, though, he gets a bit whacky: the digression at the end about magical placenames starts out interesting and then wanders quickly into pseudoscientific antistatistical nonsense.
