From the publisher:

This book, the CRYPTOZOOLOGY ANTHOLOGY: STRANGE AND MYSTERIOUS CREATURES IN MEN'S ADVENTURE MAGAZINES, was named one of the "Best Cryptozoology Books" of the year by Loren Coleman, Founder & Director of the International Cryptozoology Museum when it came out.

The CRYPTOZOOLOGY ANTHOLOGY is the first ever collection of classic men's adventure magazine stories about Bigfoot, Sasquatch, the Yeti, the Loch Ness Monster, and other legendary monsters.
