Description
The Soviet Sasquatch by Boris Porshnev is a fascinating exploration of a mysterious creature said to inhabit mountainous regions of Asia. In 1957, historian and social scientist Boris Porshnev was inspired by reports of the Yeti in the Himalayas and began investigating similar sightings in the Soviet Union. Porshnev's research led him to establish a Commission to examine the 'Snowman' phenomenon, which received over 1,000 reports from across the country. Despite initial enthusiasm, the expedition's findings were later subverted by powerful figures in the scientific establishment, leading to Porshnev's theory being attacked and his work being suppressed. This book is a rare opportunity to read Porshnev's original research on the subject, which was never completed but circulated among colleagues in Moscow before disappearing for over half a century.
