Summay

"'Horridus: journey of a triceratops' chronicles the 67-million-year voyage across deep time of one of the most remarkable fossils ever discovered. From Montana to Melbourne, photography and artwork have been gathered together with mediations from a diverse, international range of thinkers to provide insight into the process of unearthing, preparing, shipping, cataloguing and mounting the most complete Triceratops known to science. The worlds of palaeontology and art intersect in celebration of Museum Victoria's landmark exhibition 'Triceratops: fate of the dinosaurs'. In this companion book edited by author Chris Flynn, contributions from Benjamin Law, Dr Susannah C.R. Maidment, Tim Flannery, Shannon Martinez, Mark Radburn, Laura Jean McKay, Philip J. Currie, Tony Birch, Dr Linden Ashcroft, Thomas H. Rich, Professor John A. Long, Maree Clarke, Shaun Tan, Rebecca Dart, Craig Pfister and staff at Dino Lab and Museums Victoria provide us with a profound feeling of connection to the prehistoric world"--Publisher's description.
