Description
"The incredible dinosaur that dominates the Earth Hall of the Natural History Museum [in London] is the most intact Stegosaurus fossil skeleton ever found. Measuring nearly six meters long from head to tail, around 90% of the animal -- nicknamed Sophie -- is preserved, making it both incredibly rare and valuable. This is the story of Sophie's dramatic discovery in the hills of Wyoming, USA and her journey to the high tech laboratories of the Natural History Museum, where her arrival led to the first detailed study of a Stegosaurus for almost 100 years. This books sheds new light on this iconic but poorly understood dinosaur species"--Amazon.
