This was the 1st book I got about fossils way back in 1988 for
Christmas. Great book for the young paleontologist. |
Great book for someone new to fossils includes a section on
preparations for the field, how to clean & identify what you
find. Plus has many collecting localities for each state. |
These two books are for the advanced collectors. The one on the left
is: An introduction to the study of fossils, 1921, by Hervey Woodburn
Shimer. The right one is: Invertebrate Paleontology, 1935, by William
H. Twenhofel & Robert R. Shrock |
|
This is a great book with about half of it
devoted to a section on Pterosaurs |
This is an ok book mainly for people who live in the coastal
states. Since it is in B&W it makes some of the fossils
hard to see |
This thin book is quite informative but is for a young collector |
|
An informative book with many color photos. Most of the fossils seem
to have came from the UK |
N.G. isn't always about fossils but when it is it's a good idea to
get that issue as they are very informative in their reports |
This is a must have book for anyone wishing to go looking for
Dinosaurs. Has places to go for each state in the USA |
|
Great book for young collectors. Covers a wide variety of fossils |
A great book that has a brief summary of the classification system of
the phylum and classes of the plant & animal kingdoms |
|
A great must have book for anyone collecting fossils in North
America. But it could use some more Vertebrate fossil pics. |
|
|
A great book by Jerry C. Laplante. Has tips on tools and collecting
fossils. Plus a section with fossil localities for each state. |
This is what I think is a must have for anyone interested in
Dinosaurs.Written by Robert T. Bakker, Ph.D. I hope to one day get to
go on one of his volunteer digs. |
Another must have written by John R. Horner and James Gorman. About
their discovery of baby Dinosaurs. |
|
A good book for the young collector who is getting started in
Dinosaurs and fossils. |
This book has many great drawings and I think it is for someone
between beginner and amatur Paleontolgist. |
The Practical Paleontologist by Steve Parker. A great book that deals
with finding localities, surveying and recording, and extracting your fossils. |
|
A great book by William H. Matthews III. Deals with
Preservation,collection,preparation and display of fossils; plus has
a great list of other fossil books and guides. |
|
Bulletin #54 Geology and Mineral Resources of the Paleozoic
Area in Northwest Georgia. Great book with a lot of fossil pics. |
|
|
Bulletion #62 Contributions to the Paleontology of Northwest Georgia.
Another great bulletin with many plates (pages) of fossil pics. |

Below are some magazines that
usually have sections of fossils in them. I have added links to the
ones that I could find.
