Arnold introduces dinosaur species that lived during the Cretaceous Period in the polar regions, once thought too cold for dinosaur survival. After an introduction on paleoclimatology and fossil finds, the discussion alternates between descriptions of major species and historical accounts of scientists and fossil collectors. Caple's luminous watercolors place the dinosaurs in lush northern forests and beaches reminiscent of today's Pacific Northwest. Websites. Ind.
