The Patterson-Gimlin Film, the Hominid seen in it, the remarkably intense debate it has provoked, and the solution to the mystery.This book offers a truly unique analysis of the famous Patterson-Gimlin Film (the “Bigfoot” film, as it is also known), addressing the question of hoax or fraud from the perspective of a professional makeup and creature effects designer, as well as the perspective of a vintage filmmaker. The film itself is truly the best evidence, far superior to any testimony, recollections and similar descriptive accounts, and this analysis relies upon that best evidence only, for the definitive analysis in the 47 year history of this mysterious piece of film footage. This book is primarily written for the people who have not made up their minds, people who are simply curious about this mysterious film and have not yet formed an opinion as to its authenticity. Hopefully as well, this book will be of value to scholarly people who are willing to evaluate this film with an academic and factual approach. The film is a remarkable mystery, and the controversy surrounding it is a fascinating commentary on human nature. The truth of the Patterson-Gimlin Film is quite an extraordinary story.

Bigfoot! Huge, hairy, foul smelling, this legendary apelike animal continues to captivate the public''s imagination. This fascination hinges on a single piece of motion-picture film shot in northern California in 1967. For thirty-five years, Bigfoot believers have been convinced that this sixty-second piece of film proves the physical reality of Bigfoot. But now comes a book that demolishes that belief, that produces final proof that the film footage is a hoax. The Making of Bigfoot tells the amazing story of Roger Patterson of Yakima, Washington. A part-time rodeo rider, chronically unemployed and dying of cancer, Patterson propelled himself into short-lived fame and fortune by exploiting his obsession with the Bigfoot subject and leveraging his expertise in manipulating and conning people to pull off one of the world''s great hoaxes. Living within two hours of Patterson''s hometown, for three years paranormal investigator and author Greg Long interviewed more than forty witnesses in Yakima who knew Patterson intimately. The voices of these witnesses, combined with facts unearthed from newspaper archives, books, and court documents, tell the real story of Roger Patterson. Both tragic and comical, a unique slice of Americana, The Making of Bigfoot captures the testimony of a colorful cast of characters who bring to life a man and a time in the 1960s when Bigfoot strode into the American imagination, and the world embraced a myth.

Join the Bluff Creek Project on a modern day quest for the lost film site where the image of Bigfoot was forever immortalized in celluloid. On October 20th., 1967, two cowboys filmed an apparent "Bigfoot" creature walking away along a sandbar in a remote canyon along Bluff Creek in the wilds of Northern California. By the 1990's the film site had been lost to public knowledge and reclaimed by dense regrowth. During the prestigious 2003 International Bigfoot Symposium in nearby Willow Creek, none of the supposed experts could agree on the exact location of the once famous encounter. Doubt lurked behind the numerous assertions as nature and time attempted to erase history. Six years on, two people sought facts to solve this puzzling mystery. They found a videographer who became a partner, and a year later "The Bluff Creek Film Site Project" was born. They searched out all the old stories and met many patriarchs who were once there. But the needed landmarks and artifacts, seen clearly in the old film and research photographs, remained well hidden. Many cherished theories or bits of wisdom had to be discarded. Numerous facts were found; and they began to add up. The members of the group lived nearby, so they had a unique opportunity to conduct local historical studies on site, and to explore the whole watershed intimately. Come join us on this great adventure. Whether this Bigfoot film, shot by roger Patterson, shows one of the greatest mysteries in the world... or was the hoax of the century, the rediscovery of the Patterson-Gimlin film site stands on its own as a grand and fascinating journey.

ISBN: 0307421775

Ten Poems to Open Your Heart is a book devoted to love: to the intimacy of personal love and lovemaking, to a loving compassion for others, and to the love that embraces both this world and the next. This new volume from Roger Housden features a few of the same poets as his extraordinarily moving Ten Poems to Change Your Life, such as Mary Oliver and Pablo Neruda, along with contributions from Sharon Olds, Wislawa Szymborska, Czeslaw Milosz, Denise Levertov, and others. Any one of the ten poems and, indeed, any one of Housden’s reflections on them, can open, gladden, or pierce your heart. Through the voices of these ten inspiring poets, and through illustrations from his own life, Housden expresses the tenderness, beauty, joys, and sorrows of love, the presence of which, more than anything else, gives human existence its meaning. As Housden says in his eloquent introduction, “Great poetry happens when the mind is looking the other way and words fall from the sky to shape a moment that would normally be untranslatable. . . . When the heart opens, we forget ourselves and the world pours in: this world, and also the invisible world of meaning that sustains everything that was and ever shall be.” From the Hardcover edition.
