Description

Group of Two Science Books

This offering contains two books, both associated with the beginnings of life on Earth. The Dawn of Life by Giovanni Pinna is an illustrated volume in "The World of Nature Series," printed by World Publishing in 1972.The jacketed reference explores the origins, forms, and classifications of prehistoric animals in detail. The Rise of Life by John Reader, with Illustrations by John Gurche, tells the story of "the first 3.5 billion years" of Earth's history. The jacketed hardcover dated 1986 from Roxby Prehistory Limited is a compelling look at a complex subject. The jackets exhibit minor wear. Both books are in good condition.
