Description
“The Sasquatch kept steady steps like a ‘man on mission’. I sat in my car just two meters away from him. Then, as he approached, he became transparent. I could see right through him. Then puff, like magic he was gone.” — From a witness report
In this revised edition, Nahganne: Tales of the Northern Sasquatch presents over a hundred encounters with giant bipedal, forest-dwelling, hirsute hominoid entities.In the North they have been given many regional names; although they are commonly known as Nahganne or Sasquatch. This new edition presents newly reported activities such as sightings, strange vocals, the discovery of large human-like footprints, strange animal reaction, and weird tree events. The book also contains bits of history and details about the First Nation Peoples of the North. Also in this revised edition book, Red Grossinger includes all-new investigative analyses about the encounters and occurrences.

He is a decorated military officer, now retired from the Canadian Army after 30 years of service with NATO and the UN around the world. Red is an avid outdoorsman and an open-minded Sasquatch enthusiast who has been roving about the Yukon since 1980. Through these years of travel, Red has acquired an intimate knowledge of the North, which he has used to analyze the many Sasquatch related reports presented in this book.
Raymond Yakeleya is an award-winning Dene television producer, director and writer. Originally from Tulita in the Northwest Territories, he now calls Edmonton, Alberta home. Raymond is author of the Dene children’s book The Tree by the Woodpile and editor of We Remember the Coming of the White Man and Indigenous Justice. He wrote an extensive foreword in Nahganne: Northern Tales of the Sasquatch. Says Raymond, “Indigenous Peoples need to have a voice in mainstream media in order to tell our stories, our way. With the passing of many of our Elders, the telling of these stories has become more important.”
Editorial Reviews
“As an academic I appreciate the scientific analyses of the various Sasquatch sightings and the attention paid to details. As a First Nations person I enjoy the book’s storytelling qualities and humanistic approach. I have friends and family who have seen Sasquatch, and this book assures that these stories of the North won’t be lost through time.”

“Red Grossinger has put together an enthusiastic and insightful inspection of Nahganne or the Northern Sasquatch using intriguing real-life examples, most of which he investigated himself. When you finish this book, perhaps you too will believe.”
— JOHN FIRTH, Author of The Caribou Hotel and One Mush: Jamaica’s Dogsled Team
