Is it possible that unusual creatures share the Pacific Northwest with its 10.3 million human occupants? It's true! Oregon and Washington have misplaced alien invaders, such as a half-inch flea, a giant spider with a leg span of three inches, and a snakehead fish (made famous of late in four horror movies) that can breathe in water and on land, and grows to be about four feet long. There are sea monsters, from prehistoric times to the present, as well as freshwater phantoms said to infest lakes and rivers. The sky has winged wonders that resemble species long believed to be extinct. These are the stuff of nightmares: thunderbirds described as raptors, resembling eagles or vultures, with a wingspan of eight feet, as well as Bigfoot and other large bipeds. A comprehensive guide to a crypto zoo of the Northwest, this book details the Black Tamanous, a man-eating monster; a kangaroo man; the usual brownies, elves, fairies, gnomes, leprechauns, pixies, wee folk; and many more. You may find this research unsettling, even frightening. One thing is certain...a world of mystery awaits.

There is only one human impulse as old as the desire to build a house - the desire to decorate it. From a house made entirely of embalming fluid bottles created by an ex-undertaker, to a miniature backyard Dodge City built by a devoted "Gunsmoke" fan, to a junk castle assembled from old bedsteads, metal fans, and washing machine parts for a fine arts doctoral project - these are some of the uncommon homes and gardens found throughout western Canada and the United States. Meet some of the people who created these weird but magnificent places: Tim Anderson, from Roundup, Montana, who erects his graceful pillars and whirligigs from scrap iron and is said to be directed by visions; Rasmus Petersen, of Redmond, Oregon, who immigrated from Denmark in 1906 to clear 300 acres of rock and forest and created an extensive rock garden with the by-product of his labours; and John Keziere, who hails from Esquimalt, BC, a former whaler and merchant marine who modelled his garage on Davey Jones' locker. This exuberantly illustrated book is a tribute to men and women in Alberta, British Columbia, Idaho, Oregon, Montana, Washington and the Yukon who have created domestic monuments that are out on the margins. Strange Sites: Uncommon Homes and Gardens of the Pacific Northwest celebrates the creative spirit in us all, the spirit that defies the trends, the neighbours and the building codes to construct unique, joyous and very strange sites.
