A review by kelleygv
The Rise and Reign of the Mammals: A New History, from the Shadow of the Dinosaurs to Us by Steve Brusatte

adventurous informative medium-paced

4.75

This is a fantastic read for anyone interested in paleontology and geology outside of popular fossil discoveries, like dinosaurs. It's a great companion to Brusatte's other book, the Rise and Fall of the dinosaurs. I read them back to back and actually enjoyed his mammal boom even more than his dinosaur book. I wish this book was able get into even more detail in regards to the timeline of mammal evolution through deep time, but then it would probably morph into a text book. Excellent read!
