Publisher's Synopsis

Dinosaurs have such a powerful grip on the public mind that it is easy to forget how recently humans became aware of them. The word dinosaur didn't even exist until 1842. Those confused early years when the world was baffled by the discovery of absurdly enormous reptiles, represents one of the most fascinating stories science's history.
