Description
"Decades before Darwin famously publishes his theories of evolution, Mary Anning digs, hammers, and hauls . . . exposing fosisls that have been hidden in the rocks for millions of years. She studies fossil anatomy and expertly prepares her specimens for sale. Mary achieves two milestones that mos women of her time haven't heard of--independence and a career. Her findings stir debate among male scholars: Did mysterious, frightening animals once swim in a sea that covred much of England? If they did, what happened to them? How ancient is our our earth?"--Jacket flap.
