"Plaudits to all—author,
illustrator, editors, and Mountain Press—for this wonderful book on my favorite
subject." —Paul S. Martin, emeritus professor of geosciences, University of
Arizona Desert Laboratory
The time is the Pleistocene epoch, about 2 million to 10,000 years ago.
Continent-size ice sheets cover 30 percent of the earth's landmass, and strange
creatures rove the landscape. Ice Age Mammals of North America transports
you to the world of saber-tooth cats, woolly mammoths, four-hundred-pound
beavers, and twenty-foot-tall ground sloths. Illustrated descriptions of the
animals form the heart of the book and the final chapter explores why so many of
these animals were extinct by the end of Pleistocene time.
Ice Age Mammals of North America: a guide to the big, the
hairy, and the bizarre.
