Dragon Teeth by Michael Crichton


Which author can combine the Old West and paleontology into an interesting and delightful novel? The late Michael Crichton did just this. His wife found a 1974 letter he had written to a museum curator describing the works of Othniel Charles Marsh and Edward Drinker Cope, archenemies in search of the same dinosaur fossils. Readers are transported back to old western towns with their notorious characters and wild living . This novel shows Crichton’s research and gives the reader scientific and historical facts, along with humorous fiction.
