It is also the location of the Bigfoot Information Center and the Bigfoot Museum and Exhibition, the latter built with a grant from the Academy of Applied Science of Boston, Massachusetts.To date more than 500 newspaper and magazine articles have been published and syndicated on the subject of Bigfoot and they have appeared in such major publications as the NEW YORK TIMES, the WALL STREET JOURNAL, the LOS ANGELES TIMES, SMITHSONIAN MAGAZINE, the EXPLORERS CLUB JOURNAL, TIME, NEWSWEEK, etc. But Byrne has saved the best of Bigfoot reading for his book.- from back jacket flap
