Yowie Succeeds Wildly
April 21, 2007
We can’t ask for a better review than the one of The Yowie: In Search of Australia’s Bigfoot that appeared in the March issue of Fortean Times. Says reviewer Jay Rath: “…a masterful book…even naysayers must congratulate Healy and Cropper on performing anthropological field work, recording and preserving native traditions [of the creature]. Healy and Cropper avoid drawing conclusions and instead use a third of the book to present 282 reports, many of them recent, but also including Aboriginal legends and other incidents dating back to 1789…the book is very good indeed…They set out…to offer up a mass of primary research, and they succeed wildly.”
