Good, but no illustrations

The info is good, but in this particular version, while constantly referring to illustrations, it does not include them. Frustrating to say the least.

The text is small, and the writing pedantic. This book outlines when and where dinosaurs were found in the late 1800's . Remains of dinosaurs were found in all continents, but mainly Europe and North America. Studies showed that there was enough fossilized bones throughout the world with the exception of Australia.

At the time of the writing of this book, most bones found in the United States were primarily in the western states, However, surprisingly in Boonton New Jersey, there were tracks of dinosaurs, which helped to differentiate meat eating and those that existed through eating the lush vegetation .

I don't have much to write about this difficult to read and understand book, which would be fine if you are a paleontologist, but certainly not for the unscientific mind.

2 stars.

Interesting read but the E copy doesnt include the diagrams referenced.
