About the Author
Dr James Barnet grew up in the New Forest and became interested in its geology at an early age. With a first class master's degree and a PhD in Geology, James has worked in the petroleum industry and is now a post-doctoral researcher at the University of St Andrews. This book represents the culmination of almost thirty years' experience of fossil hunting and geological study in and around the New Forest, as well as along the Jurassic coast.
Reviews
There are lots of good UK guides like this one, to areas such as Dorset and Yorkshire, and many areas of Scotland and Wales, for example.. another excellent example of that genre. In fact, this is the book is the first I have seen on the New Forest of Hampshire. -- John Trevelyan * Deposits Magazine *
Dr Barnet's guide is a handy and well written book that any geologist - professional or amateur - interested in Palaeogene life will find informative and of practical use. -- Dr David M. Jones, OUGS Proceedings Editor * Proceedings of the Open University Geological Society Volume 7 2021 *
Before visiting a new area, I always like to check out the geology (doesn't everyone?) and will definitely be taking this book with me when I go to the New Forest. The aim of being a complete guide to the geology and fossils of the area is achieved in an engaging and accessible way. -- Caroline Jones * Geoscientist - magazine of the Geological Society of London *
