In volume one, Hairy Humanoids, we examine the diverse collection of hairy, bipedal, manlike monsters that are believed to inhabit the world’s remote and lonely regions and ask the question—do they represent a single species, or could there be other lesser-known varieties of Wildmen, yet to be revealed? Join me as I go in search of these and the many yet-to-be-discovered beasts.
