My Quest for the Yeti
Reinhold Messner (translated by Peter Constantine)
2000 (English edition), St. Martin’s Press
169pp.
This is really two books: one, an adventure tale by a great mountaineer; the other, a confusing attempt to show the yeti is a large and very strange type of brown bear. Messner describes yetis routinely walking and running on two feet and includes photographs of an ordinary-looking brown bear he claims is the mysterious bipedal chemo, or yeti.

Messner received additional attention for his Yeti testimony due to Bryan Sykes investigation into DNA samples held by him. See Sykes – Bigfoot, Yeti and the Last Neanderthal for more on Yeti-bear idea.
