| Synopsis: |
For dinosaur lovers and tourists alike, this guide explores the palaeontological treasure trove of the western United States. Concentrating on the rich fossil life of the Colorado Plateau region - including parts of Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico - it gives readers the story behind a track record which extends some 300 million years back in time. Readers learn about America's prehistory as they explore a region with one of the best track records of land animals found anywhere in the world. An appendix lists museums and other major repositories of tracks and replicas, and gives details on tracksites open to the public. Lockley leads his readers to the footprints themselves, and shows fossil explorers how these traces can help to interpret the behaviour of dinosaurs. |
