Description:

The Isle of Skye is justifiably famous for its dinosaur fossils, in particular some spectacular footprints and trackways. As a northern outpost of Jurassic rocks in Britain, Skye has revealed a fascinating range of fossils, not only of dinosaurs, but also ichthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, turtles, crocodiles, mammals and even plants. This is the first book to describe this wealth of material and it is illustrated throughout with photos of fossils as well as their finders. Although written primarily for a popular audience, it also contains detailed appendices for those who would like to dig a little deeper into the subject.
