Acerca de esta escucha

The inspiration for the film The Dark Divide starring David Cross and Debra Messing, one of America's most esteemed natural history writers takes to the hills in search of Bigfoot - and finds the wildness within ourselves.

Awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship to investigate the legends of Sasquatch, Yale-trained ecologist Dr. Robert Pyle treks into the unprotected wilderness of the Dark Divide near Mount St. Helens, where he discovers both a giant fossil footprint and recent tracks. On the trail of what he thought was legend, he searches out Indians who tell him of an outcast tribe, the Seeahtiks, who had not fully evolved into humans. A handful of open-minded biologists and anthropologists counter the tabloids Pyle studies, while rogue Forest Service employees and loggers swear of a vast conspiracy to deep-six true stories of unknown, upright hominoid apes among us. He attends Sasquatch Daze, where he meets scientists, hunters, and others who have devoted their lives to the search, only to realize that "these guys don't want to find Bigfoot - they want to be Bigfoot"!

Mr. Pyle handles the subject of Bigfoot with the kid gloves required to treat the subject with dignity and respect. I love the fact that he doesn’t confirm or deny his belief in Bigfoot, but rather invites us to make our own decision. If you love Sasquatch, I 10/10 recommend this book for you.

Imaginitive and Educational

A rather philosophical and beautifully written treatment of the subject matter. Overall, an utterly enjoyable and eye-opening read. The author has my distinct respect and admiration for his treatment of this topic. Truly inspirational.

REFRESHING

The whole story is great with all of the details that he gives about everything

All the details

goes into so much detail that you can actually close your eyes and be in the world. he precisely describes the taste of water from the initial head through the body to the aftertaste. goes through every single detail of each individual leaf and blade of grass that he steps on. That is what is wrong with this book if you took out all the useless detail and got to the actual story part it would be 15 minutes long I'm not even going to finish this book because I'm tired of hearing the description of air particles.

Epic Details

Just couldn’t finish it. Wanted to! Tried to but after 6 hours waxing poetic, he just hasn’t said much about anything except flora and fauna, moths and butterflies.

Gave it good try

This book may have been good but could not make it past the 2nd chapter. I understand about wanting to immerse your reader into the story. But the over explanation of events, descriptions and just over all writing, makes this story boring and tedious.
It is almost like the author was being payed by the word instead of a good story.
Narration was done well.

2 chapters in and returned

The use of poetic, descriptive language is tolerable for the first few chapters…then it is like walking through a flooded barnyard in athletic shoes. (You don’t go far before you lose your shoes and you end up covered in s***. Yet, you have no choice but to continue onward. )

If you are not a speed reader or listener, you will have trouble finishing this book. Skip to chapter eleven for some Bigfoot instead of poetry of speckled warblers and tree nuts.

Lastly, the author can’t put his politics and ego down long enough to find Bigfoot. His thoughts are a regurgitation of typical higher education elitist. Any original thoughts are as missing from as the hairy hominid that peaked my interest.

Reading/listening for Bigfoot? Don’t.
