Cenozoic Fossils II The Neogene Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
560 color photos and engaging text take readers on a journey back to a world first of tropical climates and then plunging into an Ice Age. It covers the Miocene, Pliocene, Pleistocene, and Holocene Epochs, and includes a dazzling array of fossils, including plants, mollusks, sharks, insects, mammoths, and mastodons. This is the age when familiar plants and animals arise and where humans first appear on the Earth. Human intelligence grows and early tools are also included in this sweeping review of ""recent"" geological history. The tools include hand axes, Paleolithic scrapers, and an easily recognizable Clovis spear point. Explore the dawning of the world we know. Current value ranges for the fossils displayed here are included. This is the perfect gift for anyone who has wondered where we all came from and evidence of how things used to be.

A good fossil guide, but, in my opinion, a little bit messy (it keeps mixing Miocene, Pliocene and Pleistocene terms).Nevertheless, it worth the money it costs!
An important reference.
Stinchcomb has put together an amazing book. Filled with a lot of information and loads of photos. I would buy this book again, it was worth the money spent.
Once again I like the presentation, photos, and supplemental material.I would recommend this book to any one interested in paleontology.
