The tale starts on the finish of 1968 in New Jersey, whilst zoologist Bernard Heuvelmans and biologist Ivan Sanderson first listen from a correspondent concerning the frozen corpse of an incredibly furry man-like creature being exhibited within the Midwest. Upon arrival in Minnesota, the 2 scientists come head to head with a “hominid” now not of our species embedded in a block of ice. An inquiry into the beginning of the specimen triggers a weird and wonderful experience related to the FBI, the Smithsonian, the Mafia, the Vietnam struggle, drug smuggling, Hollywood, and a secretive millionaire, giving a lot of the account the flavour of a riveting detective tale. What occurred is instructed in meticulous element via Heuvelmans, who attracts a startling end as to the Iceman’s nature in response to a comparability of its anatomy with that of contemporary people and fossil ancestors. yet the place Heuvelman’s clinical story ends, cryptozoologist Loren Coleman’s starts off, in a long fact-filled afterword that brings this striking saga up-to-date.
