description: Digging Up Deep Time traces Australia’s unique and fascinating prehistory through its extraordinary fossil sites. Australia is home to some of the world’s earliest fossil finds – and home to some of its most unique. By investigating each important fossil site in the country, Paul Willis will build a picture of Australia’s earliest history. As well as the describing the fascinating ancient natural history of this country, Paul Willis will recount the rollicking stories of our dinosaur hunters – the Indiana Joneses of Australia – competing to find the most important new bones and to protect their discoveries. Filled with colour and black and white photographs, expert findings and wonderful stories, for the first time Australia’s distant past will be brought vividly to life for enthusiasts of all ages.
