The Untold Story of Champ: A Social History of America's Loch Ness Monster, NEW

Description: The Untold Story of Champ:A Social History of America's Loch Ness Monster By Robert E. Bartholomew Paperback: 267 Pages — Publisher: Excelsior / State University of New York Press (2012) This book presents the Champlain Monster like you have never seen him before. This warts and all biography of America's Loch Ness Monster by sociologist Robert Bartholomew breaks new ground by taking journalists to task for sloppy reporting, and criticizing local tourist bureaus for their singular focus on Champ Dollars. It presents the most complete history of Champ from Native American lore to the modern-day monster hunters; their egos, obsessions and behind-the-scenes squabbles. Also examined is whether the famous Mansi photo is a hoax, and weighs the evidence of the ultimate question: does Champ exist? Please note: All books are shipped USPS Media Mail within the U.S.A. Other forms of postage are prohibitively expensive and will be used only at buyer's request (and higher shipping cost). Shipment to countries outside the U.S.A. will be sent First Class International Mail unless the package weighs more than 4 lbs. which will require a higher cost form of shipment. Again, other forms of international postage will only be used at the buyer's request because of high cost. Condition: BRAND NEW. Payment: Credit, Debit, and gift cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, and PayPal Credit. If you are bidding on multiple items and/or need more than 7 days to complete payment, please be sure to contact me. I gladly combine shipments of two or more items. Combined shipping is best facilitated by contacting me before payment. If an item remains unpaid for 7 days, I begin the Unpaid Item process with eBay to recover my eBay fees, will relist the item, and an unpaid item ding will be recorded on the non-paying bidder's/buyer's Ebay account. Shipping: If an Ebay Store listing or auction features free shipping, there is no shipping cost to the buyer. Otherwise, Buyer pays shipping. Please Note: Sellers are not responsible for service transit time. This information is provided by the carrier (i.e., US Postal Service) and excludes weekends and holidays. Carrier's transit times can vary considerably during peak periods. Therefore, I make no guarantees about transit times (despite Ebay's promises), but I will put your package into the carrier's system in one business day. Please note: I do not ship on Saturdays or Sundays, as my local post office is closed on weekends. Items purchased after 12:00 p.m. on Friday, on Saturday, or on Sunday will be shipped the following Monday. Feedback: I leave positive feedback for all of my customers who pay on time and leave me positive feedback. As soon as I receive your feedback, I will leave feedback for you. *** Buyers, please note: shipment times may be longer than quoted by Ebay due to pressures currently effecting delivery systems (pandemic). Thank you for your patience!***
