"In Search of the Kushtaka: Alaska's Other Bigfoot" by Dennis Waller

While visiting the well stocked book store, "Skaguay News Depot & Books" in Skagway Alaska, I found several interesting books on Alaska, the goldrush, trains, and other related topics.  Its a great bookstore.

Well, for $10 I picked up "In Search of the Kushtaka" by Dennis Waller.  I was also looking at another book on bigfoot in Alaska.  The other book was larger print, seemed pretty basic, AND it had a $20 price tag.  The Waller book was the easy choice.

And I made the right choice.  This is a great, jam packed book.  The author really gets in to some strange topics, not just bigfoot.  In fact, the book is about the "Kushtaka" or the "land-otter people" that have been seen/experienced in Alaska.

Waller is actually all over the place in this one....  he covers giant skeletons, reptilians, how the brain perceives things, and all sorts of other weirdness.  He digs deep.  He isn't shoveling the basics.....  he is connecting things and making sense.

I really liked this one.  It is a slim 150 pages, but the stories and information are thick.  This was a great value and just a darn good book.
