About this listen

Revised, updated, and expanded with the latest interpretations and fossil discoveries, the second edition of Oceans of Kansas adds new twists to the fascinating story of the vast inland sea that engulfed central North America during the Age of Dinosaurs. Giant sharks, marine reptiles called mosasaurs, pteranodons, and birds with teeth all flourished in and around these shallow waters. Their abundant and well-preserved remains were sources of great excitement in the scientific community when first discovered in the 1860s and continue to yield exciting discoveries 150 years later. Michael J. Everhart vividly captures the history of these startling finds over the decades and re-creates in unforgettable detail these animals from our distant past and the world in which they lived-above, within, and on the shores of America's ancient inland sea.

Mosasaurs, clams, ammonites, birds, plesiosaurs, and dinosaurs. The Western Interior Sea is a wildly diverse ecosystem. My parents live in Kansas, and I get to hear about all these great finds and amazing discoveries.

Great introduction into the Western Interior Sea

How Mr. Everhart managed to turn a book with such interesting material in to such a dull book is truly a remarkable achievement. Even better, Audible sells this book with no PDF for reference. If this was a travel guide most people would be looking in for Kansas in the outback of Australia. If you don't have a good working knowledge of the Mesozoic era and it's creatures this book is completely useless. This book is so dull it should come with an FDA class 3 narcotic label.
