Re: looking for books

["Ken Kinman" <kinman@hotmail.com>]

     I would suggest starting with a good vertebrate paleontology textbook 
to get a good overview.  Either "Vertebrate Palaeontology" (Michael J. 
Benton, 1997) or the older 1988 book by Robert L. Carroll ("Vertebrate 
Paleontology and Evolution").
       ---Cheers, Ken
