"Winner of the Colbert Award for the best adult book about dinosaurs"
Louis Jacobs reopened paleontologists' eyes to the African continent when he uncovered a major fossil site in the hills of Malawi in the 1980s. During five digging seasons in Malawi and three in Cameroon, Jacobs found the remains of two meat-eating theropods, two herbivorous sauropods, an odd crocodile about the size of a Chihuahua, and rare early mammals. Now in paperback, "Quest for the African Dinosaurs" includes Jacobs' new introduction, which discusses recent developments in paleontological research in Africa.
