Frozen in Time

Fossils of the United Kingdom and Where to Find Them

New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Britain is rich in the traces of creatures that swam in long-vanished oceans and dinosaurs that stalked ancient savannahs. The palaeontologist Rhys Charles explains the process of fossilization before surveying the nation’s fossil beds from the north of Scotland to Dorset’s Jurassic Coast. Each prehistoric species is described and illustrated with a detailed line drawing, and practical advice on collecting, equipment, safety and legal restrictions is included. Slightly off-mint and felt-tip mark on upper or lower trimmed edge.
