A couple of years ago Britain’s Centre for Fortean Zoology – currently the world’s only full-time organisation that investigates and searches for such mysterious animals as the Abominable Snowman, the Loch Ness Monster, Ogopogo and the Chupacabras – embarked on the initial stages of what has now become a highly-ambitious project.
As well as undertaking expeditions around the world in search of unknown beasts, the CFZ also has an in-house publishing company - CFZ Press - that regularly publishes books on all manner of cryptozoological mysteries.
Around two years ago the CFZ’s Director, Jonathan Downes, came up with a very unique plan: namely, to publish an extensive series of books that would chronicle the reports of weird creatures seen in each and every one of the counties of the British Isles. Not an easy task by anyone’s standards but Downes has firmly stuck to his guns, and the third-volume in the series is now available.
Titled Mystery Animals of the British Isles: The Western Isles and written by Glen Vaudrey, the book is an excellent, in-depth and essential piece of work that focuses its attention upon a couple of island-chains that can be found off the northwest coast of Scotland – and from where sightings of strange creatures absolutely abound, as Glen skillfully makes clear in the pages of his new title.
So, you may ask, what does this latest release from CFZ Press tell us? Well, the answer is: a great deal indeed. Read On...
