This is the complete fossil collector's guide, with everything from the origin of fossils, what they are, how they form, to where to look for them. Fossil collecting techniques are explained in detail, with tips on basic geology, collecting, preparing and documenting fossil treasures, and how to identify what you've discovered.
The book takes the amateur and student palaeontologist through the ordering of living things, (including an explanation of the Linnean way). It identifies key areas of Australia for fossil searches, and tells you where to go and who to contact for more information. This volume also includes a complete bibliography, afterword and index.
