When Dinosaurs Roamed New JerseyDid you know that Benjamin Franklin examined the first dinosaur bone in America from Woodbury, Gloucester County, in 1787 decades before the word dinosaur was even coined? Or that when the first reasonably complete dinosaur skeleton in the world was unearthed in Haddonfield, Camden County, in 1858, it was a major scientific breakthrough which forced paleontologists to completely revise their picture of dinosaur anatomy? Few people know that New Jersey

Did you know that Benjamin Franklin examined the first dinosaur bone in America from Woodbury, Gloucester County, in 1787--decades before the word dinosaur was even coined? Or that when the first reasonably complete dinosaur skeleton in the world was unearthed in Haddonfield, Camden County, in 1858, it was a major scientific breakthrough which forced paleontologists to completely revise their picture of dinosaur anatomy? Few people know that New Jersey is the nursery of American vertebrate paleontology

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 10-15,000 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 characteristic of each era were found. He shows how fossil evidence found in the state is helping paleontologists uncover the ecological interactions and behavior of dinosaurs, and discusses such ongoing 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, to finding a mushroom in ancient amber in East Brunswick, this book is the ideal introduction to the Garden State's fossils and prehistory.

Dream big
Format: Kindle
What a great collection of books if you have that dream of starting your own business and you don't know where to start, these books are ideal for you. They will guide you with actionable tips and step-by-step strategies and include real-world examples of how to achieve that dream of being your own boss. What I liked the most are the real-world success stories that the author includes, the stories serve as motivation. Each success story told is a lesson with practical ideas that will help you better understand the steps and tools you need to achieve your dream. I found it very interesting that if the first book in the collection serves to guide you on how to start your business, in the second book the author will help you prepare for digital marketing, explaining that you should keep yourself updated with new trends, acquiring knowledge of where to invest and when, and most importantly that your business incorporates the latest AI tools to be more productive. These are some 💎 gems of books, these books serve as motivational guides with the tools and concepts that will help guide you on the path you need to take to achieve the business you dream of, I recommend it.
