Fossil Hunters

These books are simply written and have period photos, maps, and full-color reproductions. The titles range from the historical (the 19th-century “Bone Wars”) to the contemporary (the discovery of T. rex) to a bridge work (Philip Currie’s search for Barnum Brown’s “lost” Albertosaurus bone field). . . These titles are interesting introductions to the history of dinosaur hunting and the ongoing efforts of paleontologists in the field.
