Dragon Teeth by M. Chriton

This is a great book. A 5 Star for sure. I am a fan of dinosaur science (paleotology) and this book was a novel that informed, educated me and was very enjoyable reading.

This is a work of fiction that deals with Professors Cope and Marsh and their competition to find the most specimens of dinosaurs in the Western Territories of the USA in the 1870's and later.

The book has lots of Western Action with brief battles with Native Americans, outlaws, scoundrels and other interesting characters.
I would recommend this book as an entertainment with some greatly researched data on dinosaur hunting and collection in years gone by. The book is oriented to the scientific mind of the author and has a great bibliography at the end of the text.
