**In this long-awaited sequel Kirk Johnson and Ray Troll are back on a road trip-driving, flying, and boating their way from Baja, California to northern Alaska in search of the fossil secrets of North America's Pacific coast.** They hunt for fossils, visit museums, meet scientists and paleonerds, and sleuth out untold stories of extinct worlds. As one of the oldest coasts on earth, the west coast is a rich ground for fossil discovery. Its wonders include extinct marine mammals, pygmy mammoths, oyster bears, immense ammonites, shark-bitten camels, polar dinosaurs, Alaskan palms, California walruses, and a lava-baked rhinoceros. Join in for a fossil journey through deep time and discover how the west coast became the place it is today.
