A week from today, on Saturday, December 1, 2007, I will be giving my talk, “Introduction to Cryptozoology,” at 1:00 PM, at the American Museum of Natural History, New York City, New York, in conjunction with their current exhibition, Mythic Creatures.

I look forward to meeting many of you who plan to attend.

I won’t be able to sell any books there, of course. However, I understand the AMNH museum shop is carrying copies of Cryptozoology A to Z (NY: Simon and Schuster, 1999). I will be happy to sign your personal copies of that book or any you might bring.

Also, this may be your rare chance, as well, to get an autograph of my co-author Patrick Huyghe on your copies of The Field Guide to Lake Monsters, Sea Serpents, and Other Mystery Denizens of the Deep (NY: Tarcher/Penguin, 2003), and/or on The Field Guide to Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates (NY: Anomalist Books, 2006). Patrick will be at the lecture.

Take some time and enjoy the exhibits too. I plan to for the “Mythic Creatures” show closes soon (on January 6th).

Below is Gigantopithecus, which can be discovered in the unknown hominoid portion of the exhibition, I understand.
