SIGNED BY JOAN THOMAS on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; very minimal wear; More than forty years before Darwin, Mary Anning found the fossilized skeleton of a dolphin-like creature in the cliffs of Dorset. This was only the first of many important discovers made by this exceptional woman. Anning may have been the most significant paleontologist of her day, even though her finds were taken over, named, and exhibited by the male scientific establishment - including a young man named Henry De la Beche.
