When Dinosaurs Roamed New Jersey
This small book is a very good introduction to the geological history of New Jersey. As such, it will be of limited interest to anyone outside the state or its immediate neighbors. On the other hand, it offers a good starting point for the amateur or beginning professional geologist or hiker who wants to understand the various rock formations that he or she will encounter during field explorations in the region. Of particular interest is a section telling where one can go fossil hunting within the state. The author is the registrar of natural history at the New Jersey State Museum and a visiting lecturer in dinosaur paleontology at Rutgers University. For area libraries.?Harold D.
