***Before Dinosaurs: A documentary graphic novel about the beginning of paleontology.***

From the bizarre theories about devils, giants and elephants that accompanied the earliest fossil discoveries, to the shock and confusion caused by "Sea Dragon" remains in the early 19th century, this book shows how a small group of geologists put their reputations and livelihoods on the line, challenging accepted ideas of history while attempting to explain giant bones found in mines, cliffs and quarries.

See how this disparate group chipped away, piece by piece, at the mystery of the fossils, until finally these efforts yielded an unbelievable revelation : the first glimpse of a lost world of giant reptiles.
