Summary: | A behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the wildly successful U.S. Postal Service postage stamp series, The World of Dinosaurs features 15 new paintings of dinosaurs and other creatures in their North American habitat during the Jurassic and Cretaceous eras. James Gurney, the award-winning artist of the best-selling Dinotopia books, once again brings to life the wonderful world of dinosaurs. With text by two renowned paleontologists, this book includes a dinosaur "hot spots" map of the United States and a spread on dinosaur stamps from around the world, along with a double gatefold of the two paintings commissioned by the Postal Service. |
