Publisher's Synopsis

The Gigantic Mammals Of The Order Dinocerata is a scientific book written by Othniel Charles Marsh, first published in 1885. The book is a detailed study of the extinct group of mammals known as Dinocerata, which lived during the Paleocene and Eocene epochs, approximately 66-34 million years ago. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the physical features, behavior, and evolution of these massive mammals, which were characterized by their large size, powerful jaws, and unique dental structures. Marsh's work is considered a seminal contribution to the field of paleontology, and his detailed descriptions and illustrations of these prehistoric creatures have inspired generations of scientists and researchers. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of life on Earth and the evolution of mammals.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
