Animals of the Past is a comprehensive book that explores the fascinating world of prehistoric creatures. Written by Frederic A. Lucas, a renowned American zoologist and museum curator, the book covers a range of extinct animals from the earliest known life forms to the Ice Age mammals. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different period in Earth's history and the animals that lived during that time. The first chapter covers the Cambrian period, which saw the emergence of the first complex life forms, including trilobites, brachiopods, and other marine animals. The subsequent chapters cover the Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous, Permian, Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous, and Tertiary periods, each highlighting the unique animal species that inhabited the Earth during those times. The book features detailed illustrations and descriptions of each animal, including their physical characteristics, behavior, and habitat. The author also discusses the evolutionary significance of each species and their role in shaping the natural world as we know it today. Overall, Animals of the Past is an engaging and informative book that provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of extinct animals. It is suitable for readers of all ages who are interested in natural history, paleontology, and the evolution of life on Earth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
