How The "Brotherhood of the Angle" Invites a Trout to Dinner
Three hundred fifty years ago Izaak Walton wrote of the curious blend of inner peace and giddy excitement which the amateur naturalist finds at streamside. He invites us to stroll with him through the countryside, discussing the mythology, superstition, and the science of England's aquatic fauna. It is an unrushed journey, though we often arise at sunrise, and the author introduces us to many of ...

From Addict to Disciple
I feel the author is a true example of how we can show others God's love. He shares his joys and tragedies in working with those caught in substance abuse. This book is not only for those who suffer from addiction, but also for the friends and family of that person who wish to truly help the addict become a disciple of Christ. It is a book that is easy to read with small chapters that include ...
The Rational Creation

James Brodie
Coachwhip Publications, 2007
a classic 160 year old book
The Rational Creation is a classic work originally first published in 1855. Although a century and a half old, the book still provides much insight into the origins controversy that is still raging today. I was surprised at the many arguments that Brodie employed that are not often used today, but could be, in this preDarwin work. Brodie covers the body and mental constitution of mankind with ...

Widen your Worldview - if you dare!
Excellent and enjoyable book. The reports of mystery creatures are amazing. Factual, well researched and believable, it shows there is so much being missed by the mainstream scientists we entrust to show us the more obscure fauna of our world. William J Gibbons has done a thorough job and I look forward to learning more about his discoveries in the future.

Chad Arment

Arment publishes a truly classic cryptozoological tome.
Rarely has there been a more critical yet constructive look at cryptozoology, its definition, methodology and direction. Chad Arment has written a most intelligent and noteworthy tome which honestly faces some of the dilemmas that plague cryptozoology and finds means to honestly correct and address them. Comprising two parts, science and speculation, the first part is immensely enlightening. This ...

Another exceptional spider book!
Where has this book been all my 40 years of studying spiders. I am enjoying it thoroughly. Would liked to have had it when I first started to study spiders about the age of 12. Will recommend it to anyone with the slightest interest in American spiders.

Coachwhip Publications, 2004
A great look at poker and classic cartoons!
This book is a gem. For anyone interested in poker humor or classic cartoons, Bert Link's "That Little Game" is a rare find. The cartoons are all significantly cleaned up from their original state and look great. Highly recommended.

Smells like Teen Spirit
This book takes you on a trip down memory lane, back to the days when acne and humiliation were abundant, nerds flourished, and social acceptance reigned. While those years were some of the times in our lives that we would rather not re-live, the book Nerds, Etc. makes you forget all that negative nostalgia and causes you to find yourself in a state of hysterical laughing and pants wetting! Buy ...

Great addition to the cryptozoology library
I have a lot of books on this subject. It's always great to come across one that contains new or previously unheard of material. A good book to add to the collection.
Blue Tiger

Coachwhip Publications, 2007
a rare book by a childhood friend of mine
I am amazed and pleased this book is back in print. As a child our neighbors the Caldwell family, including my mom's best friend, were an impressive group of ex missionaries, scholars and writers, of whom the patron was the 80 year old Harry Caldwell. He had been a lifelong naturalist (over 100,000 exhibits in the Smithsonian, birds nests, eggs, wild animals, etc...), tiger hunter, world ...

The Historical Bigfoot

Chad Arment
Coachwhip Publications, 2006
Mysteries Magazine review
Chad Arment's third book on cryptozoology is the result of prodigious archival research on unknown primate reports filed from 41 states and six Canadian provinces between 1785 and 1946. The book effectively disproves the claim that Bigfoot was "invented" by a Bluff Creek, CA, hoaxer in 1958 or by a mercenary cameraman in 1967. If The Historical Bigfoot achieved that goal alone, it would be worth ...

Boy meets girl. Boy leaves girl. Boy meets another girl. Boy meets big freaking spider-creature. The Sign of the Spider is a classic British adventure novel, first published in 1896.
