Education & Reference Science & Nature Crime & Mystery
Peter Costello’s vintage 1974 classic In Search of Lake Monsters invites mystery lovers and folklore fans on a richly illustrated hunt for the world’s most elusive aquatic legends. From Loch Ness to lesser-known sightings, this 400-page paperback blends archaeology, eyewitness accounts, and eerie photography that still sparks debate today.
Granada’s first edition shows its age with gentle cover scuffing and mellowed pages, yet every illustration and map remains crisp. A discreet personal stamp on the front flyleaf hints at the curious reader who first pursued these watery mysteries; the wear only adds to the book’s nostalgic charm.
Ideal for young adults, armchair explorers, or anyone building a mysticism, monster, or reference shelf, Costello’s work remains a cornerstone title in cryptozoology and leisure reading circles. Grab this affordable, vintage copy and dive into the depths before the next wave of seekers snatches it away.
