This is a two-part biography of Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins (1807-1894), the English sculptor and natural history artist responsible for the celebrated life-size models of dinosaurs at London's Crystal Palace Park. Bramwell (a descendent of Hawkins who became interested in him while researching family history) offers the more straightforward biographical essay, describing her ancestor's travels, his career path, family relations, and similar topics. Peck (a senior fellow at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia) focuses more exclusively on Hawkins's artistic and scientific achievements. The volume is illustrated with examples of Hawkins's work.

In 1878, the first complete dinosaur skeleton was discovered in a coal mine in Bernissart, Belgium. Iguanodon, first described by Gideon Mantell on the basis of fragments discovered in England in 1824, was initially reconstructed as an iguana-like reptile or a heavily built, horned quadruped. However, the Bernissart skeleton changed all that. The animal was displayed in an upright posture similar to a kangaroo, and later with its tail off the ground like the dinosaur we know of today. Focusing on the Bernissant discoveries, this book presents the latest research on Iguanodon and other denizens of the Cretaceous ecosystems of Europe, Asia, and Africa. Pascal Godefroit and contributors consider the Bernissart locality itself and the new research programs that are underway there. The book also presents a systematic revision of Iguanodon; new material from Spain, Romania, China, and Kazakhstan; studies of other Early Cretaceous terrestrial ecosystems; and examinations of Cretaceous vertebrate faunas.
