520    When Dinosaurs Roamed New Jersey provides a succinct and 
       readable history of the geology and paleontology of New 
       Jersey from the time the region was covered by Cambrian 
       seas 543 million years ago to the Pleistocene Ice Age only
       10 to 15,000 years ago. William Gallagher tells the 
       stories of professional and amateur fossil hunters, their 
       discoveries, and their impact on the history of 
       paleontological thought. He points out places in New 
       Jersey and nearby where specimens. 
520    Characteristic of each era can be found. He shows how 
       fossil evidence discovered in the state is helping 
       paleontologists reconstruct the ecological interactions 
       and behavior of dinosaurs, and discusses such continuing 
       scientific controversies as the reason for the extinction 
       of the dinosaurs. From tracking dinosaur footprints across
       the Newark basin, to digging for the last dinosaurs in the
       greensands of South Jersey, this book is the ideal 
       introduction to the Garden. 
520    State's fossils and prehistory.
