Looking for a fossil book recommendation

Recommended Posts

A customer/friend of mine has bought a nice meg tooth and a bivalve from me for his boss for Christmas.

He would like to get him a fossil book for a gift now too.

He says one that covers marine and land would be good. 

Something to spark his imagination but also to learn from.

He is looking to spend £30 to £40 on it, any pointers would be good please?

Mark Renz has some good books on Florida marine fossils and mammal fossils.

Excellent book for a general introduction!  Enough detail to engage any level of interest.

Seems the cheapest copy is in Virginia, USA. $26 for book and $30 shipping!

Can go for over $400 if i buy from India though so seems a bargain! 🤔

Have you checked eBay? I see quite a few copies for under $10 US.
