Discover Texas dinosaurs

the long version

"Go behind the scenes and into the vaults of Texas dinosaur study. Through photos and narrative, many of Texas' most dedicated scientists show you actual specimens of native and nonnative dinosaur material. This book features photos of the fossilized bones of Texas dinosaurs and the dinosaur exhibits in every major museum in Texas. Detailed maps show what Texas was like during the dinosaur age.". "Doris Tischler's watercolors create a gallery of 23 native Texas dinosaurs. These colorful portraits allow you to observe the dinosaurs and get an idea of their shapes and sizes - from weighing barely 50 pounds to an astounding 50 TONS. Respected paleontologists, including Dr. Wann Langston, world-renown vertebrate paleontologist from the University of Texas, provide practiced commentaries on their subjects of expertise."--BOOK JACKET.
