Chinese Fossil Vertebrates Review
There seems to be a fly-over tone and quality to this book. It lacks flow and cohesion. The photo quality is indeed poor. Lucas also mis-cites Henry Fairfield Osborn's theorizing -- the citation should be to Osborn's article in Science (April 13, 1900), particularly at p. 567, not his later 1910 book publication. As to recounting the Central Asiatic Expeditions, the treatment is uneven and somewhat speculative. Also, some spellings are inconsistent: eg., "Granter" (caption Figure 2-10) vs. "Granger" (text, p. 24), and neither is found in the Index; "William Morris" (p. 24) actually was "Frederick B. Morris," and, again, neither is found in the Index; the expedition sequence on p. 24 is muddled (incorrect use of "First," "Second," etc.) and also ignores those made in China beginning in 1921; and etc.Most of the consumer Reviews tell that the "Chinese Fossil Vertebrates" are high quality item.
