The Fossil Woman A Life of Mary Anning

Description

Described as 'the greatest fossilist the world ever knew', a fully illustrated biography of Mary Anning is long overdue. Drawing on recent research into her life and times, yet always aware of her character and personality, Tom Sharpe has taken a fresh and often surprising look at the achievements of a woman who is finally gaining the recognition she merits. Mary Anning was born in 1799 in the Dorset town of Lyme Regis, dying there when only forty-seven.
