66 million years ago, dinosaurs disappeared from the face of the earth, having completed their 200-million-year history. Renowned American paleontologist Steve Brusatte traces their evolution through all periods — from the Triassic to the end of the Cretaceous. A passionate enthusiast and talented storyteller, he resurrects the lost world of giant lizards, describes their mysterious origin, flourishing, amazing diversity and catastrophic extinction.
Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Brontosaurus, prehistoric ancestors of modern birds — the reader is introduced to them not only by the author’s vivid descriptions, but also by numerous illustrations and photographs. Brusatte also recalls interesting cases from his numerous expeditions, which fell on the most exciting era of dinosaur research, which he calls the “golden age of discoveries”.
