Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. Travels with the Fossil Hunters tells twelve stories of expeditions to remote parts of the world in search of diverse fossils such as dinosaurs and human ancestors.

Along the way they also describe the palaeontology and geology of the countries they visit and the scientific reasons for their expeditions.
