ALTHOUGH their story might not have the same visceral appeal as the dinosaurs鈥�, the question of how plants came to turn the Earth green really is as interesting and important.
Fossil Plants tracks and illustrates their evolution from the depths of Precambrian time through the coal forests to the colouring of the land by flowering plants. For the interested amateur or student this is an ideal introduction to the history and origins of the green stuff that ultimately keeps us all going.
