"This book invites you on a journey to a time before the dinosaurs; a journey into a distant past to discover animals as surprising as they are fascinating" from the Preface "Steyer provides a rather detailed and diverse introduction to vertebrates preceding the dinosaurs as well as some contemporaneous with them, showing how the multiple types of aquatic and terrestrial forms originated and diverged... Highly recommended." Choice, December 2012
