"Ijouiher chronicles the Cretaceous fossil record of North Africa, one of the most exciting frontiers in paleontology research today." ―Steve Brusatte, New York Times-bestselling author
Once Africa was referred to as the “Lost World of the dinosaur era,” so poorly known were its ancient flora and fauna. Worse still, many priceless fossil specimens from the Sahara Desert were destroyed during the Second World War. Fortunately, in the twentieth-first century, more researchers are now working in north Africa than ever before and making fascinating discoveries such as the dinosaur Spinosaurus. Based on a decade of study, The Desert Bones brings the world of African dinosaurs fully into the light. Jamale Ijouiher skillfully draws on the latest research and knowledge about paleoecology to paint a compelling and comprehensive portrait of the mid-Cretaceous in North Africa.
“Jamale Ijouiher has brought together information from a wide variety of primary literature on the flora and fauna of this part of Gondwana during Cenomanian and early Turonian time. This information can give a very detailed picture of the medial Cretaceous evolution of an area which has a great deal of biogeographic significance. The Desert Bones will be of particular interest to anyone studying fossil communities and how ecosystems evolved over time.” ―Barbara Smith Grandstaff, University of Pennsylvania
