Description

Travel back 300 million years to a prehistoric era defined by massive life forms and dramatic climate shifts. In Carboniferous Giants and Mass Extinction, George R. McGhee Jr. provides a detailed look at the Carboniferous period of the Paleozoic era. This book brings to life a world of dog-sized scorpions, millipedes as long as cars, and tropical rainforests with trees reaching over 150 feet into the sky. Readers will explore the origins of this ancient environment and the giant polar continent that was five times larger than Antarctica. The narrative follows the progression of this era through to its downfall during the end-Permian mass extinction. This event stands as the greatest biodiversity crisis in the history of animal life on Earth. This text serves as an essential resource for those interested in biological sciences, paleontology, and the history of our planet's changing ecosystems.
