National Geographic Dinosaur book

["Tracy L. Ford" <dino.hunter@home.com>]

A while ago someone (I can't remember who) asked about the new book,
National Geographic Dinosaurs. I have my copy of it, and I'll make a few
comments on it.

First off, I like it. The art is very well done and I like the artist. Some
may not like the Dromaeosaurids with scales instead of feathers but they are
nice anyway (I wonder if the Archaeoraptor thing had anything to do with it
:)). Some of the ankylosaurs and stegosaurs are from the old 'school' views.
I haven't had a chance to read it yet but IMHO I give it two MC1's up
(that's metacarpals digit 1 or thumbs) and recommend the book to all
dinosaur lovers.

You can order the book from the National Geographic Website book section via
my web site www.dinohunter.info (Thanks to M. Everhart for explaining the
proper way to link the web sites). Go to the Dinosaur links button, scroll
down to the books section, then to the National Geographic Books link and
bang, your there.
