A contemplative tale of evolution-from prehistoric monster centipedes to men on the moon-as seen through the eyes of one of the world's foremost trackers.
Were Jurassic dinosaurs social creatures? Can you determine the shape of a ram's horns from the evidence of its footprints? Paleontologist Martin Lockley answers these and other fascinating questions in this highly original tale of tracking and track making. Filled with fascinating anecdotes and surprising discoveries, The Eternal Trail initiates us into the art and science of tracking, while offering a poetic reflection on the continuity of life.

Martin Lockley is Professor of Geology and Paleontology at the University of Colorado, Denver. A recipient of the Chancellors Lecturer Award, Lockley has led tracking expeditions all over the world. His other books include Dinosaur Tracks and Other Fossil Footprints of Europe (with Christian Meyer) and Tracking Dinosaurs.
