FOSSIL HUNTING ON
DINOSAUR ISLAND
By Martin Simpson
(Second hand copy in good condition)
From the back cover:
"The Isle of Wight isn't what it used to be. At various times it used to be a tropical land covered with giant reptiles, a frozen tundra with hairy elephants and a warm, turtle and crocodile infested swamp.
This tiny isle with its world famous fossils is known as Dinosaur Island. For the first time, a practical guide book tells you in sensible language all about these prehistoric creatures. More importantly, it shows you exactly how and where to find them."
Although somewhat dated, this is an interesting booklet written by an author who probably knows the fossils of the island better than anyone.
Published by Martin Simpson. Second edition. 1998. Black and white photographs. Soft back booklet. 48 pages. Good condition.
