Werewolves

As the moon swells toward full, a creature's fur thickens, its snout stretches out, and its jaws bristle with long fangs. Crouched and famished, it lifts its head to howl at the bright night sky.

Movies and television have made werewolves famous, but people have told stories about them for many centuries. This book traces where the legend began and how the figure has changed over time. Its visual features include a range map showing where werewolf tales are found, a timeline, and a comparison of different creatures.
