The Little Dinosaurs of Ghost Ranch

Colbert (Museum of Northern Arizona) explores the excavations at Ghost Ranch, which have yielded thousands of fossilized remains over the past 50 years of Coelophysis bauri , the 200-million-year-old ancestors of the giant dinosaurs. Color and b&w photos and illustrations chronicle the search for the reason so many of the small dinosaurs died in one place in this narrative introduction to the study of fossil life.
