I've got a birthday coming up so I'll have some
extra money. I plan on buying a few books on prehistoric life but I'm not
sure which. I want a book of the quality of Alan Turner's "The Big Cats
and Their Fossil Relatives." I want it to have many accurate
(sauropods with spines, small theropods with feathers etc.) illustrations
and up to date information. I like to read more about possible
behavior then I do about evolutionary relationships. It would also be nice
for the illustrations to specify which species they are showing and not just the
genus as so many prehistoric life books do.
Below are some candidates so can you tell me
what you think of them and, if like, suggest other books? Thanks a
ton ^_^
"The Armored Dinosaurs" by Kenneth
Carpenter.
"Mesozoic Vertebrate Life" by Darren H. Tanke
etc.
"Wildlife of Gondwana: Dinosaurs and Other
Vertebrates from the Ancient Supercontinent" by Pat Vickers Rich
etc.
"Dinosaurs of Australia and New Zealand and Other
Animals of the Mesozoic Era" by John A. Long
