Discovering the Animals of Ancient Oregon provides readers with a number of valuable insights into some of the key fossils discovered in the John Day region of central Oregon. Brief biographies of some of the earliest and best known fossil hunters in the region during the 19th century are provided to establish an essential understanding of how the first fossils were interpreted. Then, the author provides an in-depth examination of the fossil evidence for more than ten fossil species discovered in the John Day area. All of these fossils are examined in the context of a Biblical flood perspective.

Is the Arab world an indispensable energy source without which our civilisation will come to a halt? Is this the cause of political and military meddling in the Arab world's affairs, and the reason given by democratic western leaders to defend supporting autocratic and authoritarian Arab governments to stay in power? Is the world really this vulnerable? Assessment of mankind's dependence on fossil fuels, particularly the position of the Arab world, is performed by analysing the three types (oil, natural gas, and coal), which are in essence convertible. Fossil fuels are tackled from two angles: clarifying the terminology used by the media, politicians, scientists, and so-called experts, when discussing fossil fuels; evaluating the hard facts and separate them from fiction by analysing the numbers and scrutinise them impartially to come with a definitive quantitative answer. Finally, a further investigation examines fossil fuels in relation to alternative energy, and from political perspective.

Plant fossils have helped scientists reconstruct the natural surroundings that supported the growth and evolution of dinosaurs - their food sources and habitat. While there are many scientific and general books on the dinosaurs and dinosaur fossils of the Horseshoe Canyon Formation, this is the first general publication on fossil plants within the province of Alberta since 1949. The information in this guide is based on Kevin Aulenback's years of experience and discovery with hands-on investigation of fossil plants in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation and other areas, and it is supported with the most up-to-date scientific discussion on paleobotany (the study of ancient plants) and palynology (the study of spores and pollen).Identification Guide to the Fossil Plants of the Horseshoe Canyon Formation of Drumheller, Alberta is an easy-to-use guide for the amateur and professional alike to identifying Cretaceous fossil plant finds. Illustrated with over 800 drawings and photographs, the guide gives the reader/collector enough information on their finds, as well as on still-living comparatives, to accurately identify fossils within the field or lab. The guide contains many unpublished fossil finds noted by the author over sixteen years of research, discovery, and observation in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation.

In Prospecting For Lode Gold, Gregory Stone presents the background in geology and mineralogy which will enable the reader to search out the likely areas for finding lode gold deposits and how to recognize the clues to their exact locations. He advises on the most useful tools for prospecting, how to judge the value of the ore discovered, and, if gold is found, how to proceed with the claim and protect it. Detailed illustrations and pictures combine with the text to give a practical and worthwhile background to all those who find pleasure and, hopefully, profit in searching for gold.
