Heuvelmans, a founding figure in cryptozoology, meticulously analyzed numerous accounts, categorizing them into distinct types of purported sea monsters. The book delves into the scientific and anecdotal evidence, arguing that many sightings point to previously unknown, or at least unclassified, marine animals. The book examines sea serpent sightings from ancient times through the mid-20th century, focusing heavily on the 19th and early 20th centuries. He proposes that the term \"sea serpent\" encompasses not just one creature, but potentially several distinct species, including unknown cetaceans, giant eels, and other unidentified animals.
