“Backyard Bigfoot” is a complete correlation of facts, pictures, articles and questions we’ve all asked, all gathered into one concise book.  Amazingly filled with such intriguing facts and, my most favorite parts, pictures that don’t confirm 100% any true fact or fiction to the Bigfoot characters, but it does cause even the biggest unbelievers to take a second glance and thought about the entire issue. 

Up to the date information, some pictures as new as within a year ago will help instill even more questions into one’s mind.  Connections between UFO’s and Bigfoot’s are brought to the reader’s attention, as well as questionable instances of ‘stick signs’, which until this book I really never believed myself.  After seeing proof, of course nothing is 100%, the pictures and the author’s ability to actually question what’s going on herself will make even a semi-believer out of the most hardened disbeliever. 

Well put together, concise and not consisting of a ton of unaccountable information, the author seems to have a way of making the reader at least question the existence of the Bigfoot characters (often referred to as “Hairy Hominids”, a more scientific and encompassing name for the numerous variations of Bigfoot characters), if not actually begin to believe ever so much more. 

Absolutely one of the best types of investigative reporting I’ve seen as Shiel compiles so much information into this one little book that you will read over and over again.  While intended to be a ‘fully read’ book, I can visualize it quickly becoming a wonderful book of reference for any interested in these types of encounters.  Whether you believe or not, you will enjoy the questions driven from this complete book of information.
