The cretaceous birds of New Jersey
Storrs L. Olson and David C. Parris
Birds shared the world with the last dinosaurs, and a few left their bones in New Jersey. Storrs Olson and David Parris examine the Cretaceous shorebirds found in the state's ancient marine deposits, at the very dawn of modern bird groups. A precise glimpse into a pivotal moment in avian history. Meet the seabirds that flew above a vanished coast.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
