Open this book and take an excursion through the fossil world of
the first half of the Cenozoic Era--the Age of Mammals. Over 370
color photos detail the fossil record of this bygone age from small
sea creatures to the lumbering rhinoceros, Subhyracodon
occidentalis, and rare fossilized bats. The engaging text outlines
this fascinating period of geologic time and famous sites including
Florissant, Colorado, and Grube Messel, Germany. Collectors will
recognize specimens from the Green River Formation and the
Oligocene White River Group, and intriguing fossils from
lesser-known Early Cenozoic localities around the globe are also
shown. Enthusiasts will enjoy the wide range of fossils on display,
both accessible fossils any collector might hope to acquire and
elusive "trophy" specimens from this era of Earth's history.
