A dazzlingly illustrated guide to the plant life of the dinosaur age, from intricate ferns to the most majestic megaflora.

The Mesozoic was dominated by a spectacular array of flora, from ferns, conifers, and cycads to ginkgos and flowering plants, as well as some enigmatic species with no modern-day descendants. This wide-ranging illustrated guide provides an unparalleled, in-depth look at the era's extraordinary plant life, exploring its natural history, biology, and evolution over a span of 185 million years.

Blending the latest discoveries in palaeontology with informative profiles of extinct species and their living descendants, The Princeton Field Guide to Mesozoic Plants is a one-of-a-kind reference to the botanical wonders of the prehistoric world.
