Monsters & legends

"This illustrated book goes a long way to explaining the fact and fiction behind our favorite monsters and legends. Our ancestors believed in Mermaids, Unicorns and the Cyclops, not because they were mad but simply because they didn't know any better. What if the terrible Kraken, so feared by sailors, was none other than a giant squid? Imagine if Bigfoot was just a lost gorilla. Could it be that Werewolves were only very hairy humans?"--Back cover.
