Description

How did the earth look in prehistoric times? Scientists and artists collaborated during the years prior to the publication of Darwin's "Origin of Species" to produce the first images of dinosaurs and the world they inhabited. Their interpretations, informed by fossil discoveries, were the first efforts to represent the prehistoric world based on sources other than the Bible. This volume presents over 100 rare illustrations from the 18th and 19th centuries, with the aim of exploring the implications of reconstructing a past no one has ever seen.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
