Reviews
John E. Storer:
For the beginner, this fascinating book will challenge and reward in equal measure. For the professional, it will provide a valuable introduction to the literature and to British Columbia’s ancient history.

Richard Hebda, Royal British Columbia Museum:
A most remarkable book ... Each chapter clearly fits as part of the whole yet each one is a unique adventure into a fascinating part of the ancient world ... The book leaves me, as I'm sure it will leave others, with a sense of wonder about B.C.'s ancient life and how it fits into the world scheme of paleontology.
Brian Chatterton, University of Alberta:
A very important contribution to the field of public education in science ... Very readable.
