"I know that this book might make a few Americans uneasy to walk alone at night; I am sorry for that. But I’m glad to en-lighten
as many readers as possible to know about live-pterosaur investigations. Those who’ve been shocked at the sight of a flying creature
that “should” be extinct—those eyewitnesses, more numerous than most Americans would guess, need no longer be afraid that everyone
will think them crazy; and they need no longer feel alone. Those of us who’ve listened to the American eye-witnesses, we who have
interviewed them, we now believe. So, if you will, consider the experiences of these ordinary persons (I’ve interviewed most
of them
myself) and accept whatever enlightenment you may."

"On Umboi Island, I led the first of the two expeditions of 2004, with two other American cryptozoologists following . . . native
eyewitnesses we interviewed with amazing results: . . . men saw a giant featherless long-tailed flying creature in day-light
. . . If reports were only from Umboi, only from six eyewitnesses, and only from natives, we could doubt, but there’s more.
" . . . during those [many] years of expeditions in the Southwest Pacific, reports in our own country became impossible to ignore
. . . we noticed similarities: very long tails (often) and apparent bioluminescence (some-times). We began to believe."
