Live Pterosaurs in America: Not extinct, flying creatures of cryptozoology that some call pterodactyls or flying dinosaurs or prehistoric birds Paperback – November 2, 2011

This is one of those that most would just glance at then move on.We all know that Pterosaurs died out 70 some million years ago, that's what Science says, but I have seen with my own eyes on a Mexican Pyramid the carving of an almost perfect replica of the largest of these flying creatures. This leads to the question, How could these people have seen such a creature? Mr.Whitcomb and others may just have answered this question. Here is their findings submitted for you approval. Read it, it's fascinating! These creatures could still be around!

This book is one of the best books that I have ever read! It reminds us to have an open mind and that the things we have all been taught as fact ....may not be fact at all.This is a very interesting and educational book and may change the way you see the world around you.

Interesting and fun read! However, I don't think there is a strong case made in this book for the credibility of it's topic! I hope the author proves us skeptics wrong and makes ten million dollars by doing so! I'd suggest reading it for fun and fantasy, and perhaps to pick up a good "campfire story" or two!

One of a kind book, about an unknown subject.

Interesting to see so many reported cases of pterodactyls reported. However, this was not the best written book ive read. The author spends a lot of time talking about how he found decades old reports credible, and i feel makes a lot of assumptions to demonstrate the existence of these creatures. About half of the book is just stating the reports verbatim, and you can only read 'saw a pterodactyl' so many different ways.

The book uses eyewitnesses and delves into as many options as possible. It is well written. I am always looking for strange flying creatures now. Hopefully I don't see any as I am in AK... or the horrendous 6ft ones.

Live Pterosaurs in America is a collection of alleged eyewitness accounts as well a personal history of the authors journey into the question of whether flying reptiles heretofore believed long extinct, are still flying around. The book is full of accounts of everyday people who believe they've seen one or something that looks an awful lot like one, flying overhead. The book also chronicles the authors and several of his close associates journeys to Papua New Guinea where they hunt for the ever elusive Ropen. Seemingly a type of still living and glowing, Pterosaur or Pterodacty. (Yes, according to the authors beliefs, these creatures glow like a firefly at night) I give the author credit for researching as many of these eyewitness accounts as he can and not just reprinting accounts from other books or the internet. Where he can, he has called or emailed as many witnesses as he can in an attempt to glean as much information as he can about what exactly they may have seen. Strewn throughout the book is the authors belief that animals like the Pterosaur did not go extinct millions of years ago like mainstream science believes. Rather, he posits a more creationist belief that the earth is not as old as science claims and thus, these animals are not prehistoric survivors. They've been with us all along according to him. The sightings are ....interesting although I felt the author went too far trying to shoe-horn his own beliefs in long tailed Pterosaurs into almost each and every sighting rather than just accepting them for what the witness describes. He has a strong or rather strict belief to guide him and if something the eyewitness describes doesn't tally with his belief he labors to explain what he thinks the eyewitness "really" saw. If you can stand to read the authors attacks on modern science and his personal animosity for the producers of a certain television series about "Monsters" then the stories of eyewitness accounts are at least interesting if not wholly believable. If you already have an interest in Cryptids the book is worthwhile but I don't recommend it for someone not already familiar with the subject. The authors own personal religious dogma may turn you off.

I love this book and I can't put it down! After reading, I won't take a walk down my street in the dark because these creatures are nocturnal and they're probably meat eaters! Look out!
