This is a comprehensive account of the life and death of dinosaurs. Modern birds, the authors seek to show, are the direct descendants of dinosaurs and represent the most ancient living group of species on our planet. The final chapters should be of particular interest to conservationists as they describe how the bird descendants are rapidly becoming extinct at the hands of human beings. Tim Rowe chronicles the deaths of the Dodo, Great Auk, Passenger Pigeon, and the plight of the Condor, all birds that have recently become extinct.
