Staff Pick: Here There Be Monsters

Here There Be Monsters:  The Legendary Kraken and the Giant Squid by H.P. Newquist
Ancient maps of the oceans used to show in various known and hardly known areas of the world pictures of strange sea-monsters, drawn according to the eyewitness accounts and tall tales of sailors.  This book looks those legends developed and  the real sea creatures that probably gave those stories their start.   There is something irresistible about a monster rising from the deep sea!
