Books with title When Dinosaurs Die

Bones of huge animals have been discovered, animals that are much larger than any that now exist or that have existed for thousands of years. Relics found in the earth do give evidence of conditions differing in many respects from the present, but the time when these conditions existed can be learned only from the Inspired Record. In the days of Noah, men, animals, and trees many times larger than those that now exist were buried and thus preserved as evidence to later generations that the antediluvians perished by a flood. God designed that the discovery of these things should establish faith in inspired history.This book takes a look at what we have learned about some of those ancient creatures—the dinosaurs.

Flying reptiles with a 30-foot wingspan prowling the skies. This is not a nightmare vision. This is our planet, Earth, over 100 million years ago! Journey into the distant past with this book and witness the earliest events in what would become North America; when life flourished and the dinosaurs ruled the land, only to be wiped out when a meteorite from outer space exploded on Earth.

Kindle Special Edition: Dinosaurs with illustrations, and Annotated Biography of William Diller Matthew - With Special Reference to the American Museum CollectionsThis volume is in large part a reprint of various popular descriptions and notices in the American Museum Journal and elsewhere by Professor Henry Fairfield Osborn, Mr. Barnum Brown, and the writer. There has been a considerable demand for these articles which are now mostly out of print. In reprinting it seemed best to combine and supplement them so as to make a consecutive and intelligible account of the Dinosaur collections in the Museum. The original notices are quoted verbatim; for the remainder of the text the present writer is responsible. Professor S.W. Williston of Chicago University has kindly contributed a chapter--all too brief--describing the first discoveries of dinosaurs in the Western formations that have since yielded so large a harvest.Enjoy Enjoy!TABLE OF CONTENTS PREFACECHAPTER I THE AGE OF REPTILES - ITS ANTIQUITY, DURATION AND SIGNIFICANCE IN GEOLOGIC HISTORYCHAPTER II NORTH AMERICA IN THE AGE OF REPTILES - ITS GEOGRAPHIC AND CLIMATIC CHANGESCHAPTER III KINDS OF DINOSAURS - COMMON CHARACTERS AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE VARIOUS GROUPSCHAPTER IV THE CARNIVOROUS DINOSAURS, ALLOSAURUS, TYRANNOSAURUS, ORNITHOLESTES - SUB-ORDER THEROPODA.CHAPTER V THE AMPHIBIOUS DINOSAURS, BRONTOSAURUS, DIPLODOCUS - SUB-ORDER OPISTHOCOELIA (CETIOSAURIA OR SAUROPODA)CHAPTER VI THE BEAKED DINOSAURS - ORDER ORTHOPODA (ORNITHISCHIA OR PREDENTATA)CHAPTER VII THE BEAKED DINOSAURS - THE DUCK BILLED DINOSAURS, TRACHODON, SAUROLOPHUSCHAPTER VIII THE BEAKED DINOSAURS -- THE ARMORED DINOSAURS--STEGOSAURUS, ANKYLOSAURUSCHAPTER IX THE BEAKED DINOSAURS - THE HORNED DINOSAURS, TRICERATOPSCHAPTER X GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF DINOSAURSCHAPTER XI COLLECTING DINOSAURS - HOW AND WHERE THEY ARE FOUNDREFERENCES
