Re: Dawn of The Dinosaurs

I had Bob Sloan ( IU Press ) hold a copy for me, which I bought a couple of 
weeks ago at SVP.  In addition to some art reprinted from the original "Dawn 
of the Dinosaurs", this latest title contains at least 4 dozen new images I 
don't recall seeing in print in previous books featuring Doug's work.  If 
the only other book you have with Henderson illustrations is the original 
"Dawn of the Dinosaurs", this would make for a nice overview / visual 
inventory of his early Mesozoic artwork to date, neatly assembled in one 
volume.  Although I haven't read it as yet ( except for snippets ), I'm sure 
the written content will be a nice complement to Doug's tremendous talent. . 
. and if that weren't enough, there are also a number of interesting 
specimen photos, etc. . . to further round out the book.  A great investment 
for the price!

Cheers,

Mike S.
