The second edition of this engaging, groundbreaking book about all facets of the most storied tale in paleontological history--a behind-the-scenes adventure in both the field and drama of the science. Larson, team leader of the field crew that's dug more T. rex than anyone else, reveals what he's contributed to hunting, restoring, and researching dinosaurs--over his seven decades of experience. Donnan describes the personal drama that occurred when the most famous rex ever, Sue, was seized by the FBI, changing Larson's international headlines from science to politics. Released more than twenty years after the first edition, this volume also fills in "what happened next," with the tales behind the second crop of headlines in Larson's life--about the second-best rex, Stan, and yet another jaw-dropping lawsuit--as well as Larson's work to help government agencies and courts to create fair and proper permitting processes for field paleontologists. This is what really happened to this champion of the past--a man who never lost his faith, and the goals he continues to work toward--all for the love of science. This is a book about passion and persistence; if you love dinosaurs, this book is a true inspiration.
