The Dinosaur Hunters
by Deborah Cadbury
The Victorian search for dinosaurs.
A highly entertaining book about the early days of British paleontology, concentrating mainly on the rival figures of Gideon Mantell and Richard Owen.
Note: The American title for this book is Terrible Lizard: The First Dinosaur Hunters and the Birth of a New Science.
