Ancient Wyoming : a dozen lost worlds based on the geology of the Bighorn Basin / Kirk Johnson & Will Clyde.

Johnson, Kirk R., (author.). Clyde, Will (William C.), (author.). Vriesen, Jan, (illustrator.). Leggitt, Marjorie, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"The Bighorn Basin of Wyoming may be the best place on Earth to tell the story of our planet, as it contains layers of rock from almost every geologic time period. Merging paleontology, geology, and artistry, Ancient Wyoming illustrates twelve scenes from Earth's deep past, and provides fascinating details on the flora and fauna of the past 500 million years. Journey back in time and see what Wyoming looked like when it was a deep inland sea, a muddy swamp, an endless field of sand dunes, and a land of glacial ice and exploding super volcanoes"--Back cover.
