Terrible Lizard: The First Dinosaur Hunters and the Birth of a New Science by Deborah Cadbury

5.0

A book about discovery, but also about those who made the leaps of intelligence and reason. The author's research is detailed and there is an underlying sadness for the fate of some of those forgotten pioneers.

It may be a book about dinosaurs, but at its heart it is a book that revels in the human potential to think and reason.
