In each of us there are two natures. If this primitive duality of Man…can be housed in separate identities, life will be relieved of all that is unbearable. It is the curse of mankind…that these polar twins should be constantly struggling… 

—Spoken by the character of Dr. Jekyll, from Jekyll & Hyde: The Musical, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim


There is a very real and innate hunger within the heart and mind of every man to know truth. Since the beginning of history, humankind has struggled to find a balance in our beliefs between the immediate, corporeal world around us, and the mysteries of the unexplained. From ghosts, to aliens and crop circles, to the Bermuda Triangle, to the Loch Ness Monster, to pyramids, to cryptids, to the chupacabra, and so on, the universe continues to produce one example after another of a deeper, more mystifying layer of reality. It is the disposition of Man to want to explore and question this layer, knowing on some level that there is clear, present evidence of something there that defies what Man knows to be the natural order of the world. But the duality within Man struggles to explain away and reject the very same “unknown” that he constantly sets out to investigate.

History has also shown an extreme reaction to those that claim to have been eyewitness to the mysteries of the world. When Man has seen spirits, they have been heralded as leaders and made into shamans and healers, and alongside these men have been others murdered for what they’ve witnessed (consider the Salem Witch Trials, where one would only have to be accused of seeing something to be judged and put to death upon hearsay). But one reality continues to be true and consistent:  When an event (or different events of striking similarity) is continuously witnessed repeatedly by thousands upon thousands of people over periods of hundreds of years and in locations all over the Earth, those events cannot simply be dismissed away.

In True Legends: Tales of Giants and the Plumed Serpents, Stephen Quayle documents eyewitness accounts and archeological evidence of giants in our midst spanning hundreds (and in some cases, thousands) of years and from all over the globe, some even in more recent times, and some from very noted historical figures (George Washington, as an example). Page after fascinating page reveals claims from the earliest form of recording (such as the writings on a wall) that giants have been a phenomenon, a mystery of the world that cannot be explained away or dismissed.

What is it about these giants? Why do they contrast so definitely from other classes of the unexplained? Is it because, unlike ghosts or spirits, we have archeological and skeletal evidence of their presence on Earth? Perhaps it is because, unlike vampires and werewolves, the Bible directly addressed giants in the Book of Genesis? Or maybe it’s because, unlike the Loch Ness Monster or the Bermuda Triangle, these giants are so like normal men? Whatever the reason, their influence on cultures worldwide over the course of thousands of years has been, at the least, stirring. True Legends travels directly to these cultures and covers the historical association of giants over the passage of time.

WARNING: This book is not for the skeptic looking to “debunk” giant sightings. Unlike many books on subjects of the unexplained, which are glorified hype/propaganda books looking to pull the shock-and-awe factor over on the reader through hundreds of pages of fluff, True Legends unfolds how the earliest documented cases of giants living among us leads to a disturbing and controversial cover-up of their existence from science and history communities all over the world.
And then there is a far more deeply disturbing possibility. That they are on earth again, hidden, waiting for . . . what?
