"A book that presents a comprehensive review of vertebrate ichnology has been long overdue. This is that book, the first volume to present a comprehensive review and extensive analysis of vertebrate trace fossils. It covers all aspects of the vertebrate trace fossil record: tetrapod footprints, fish trails and imprints, dentalites, bromalites (regurgitalites, consumulites, coprolites and others…gastroliths, burrows, and much more.... an extremely valuable and necessary handbook for anyone doing research on footprints and trackways of terrestrial vertebrates.... The heart of the book is a survey of tetrapod footprint ichnotaxa, described in chapters by stratigraphic age.... I think the greatest value of this book will be as a first stop for those wanting an entry into the literature about a particular ichnogenus.... The book will also be useful to those making comparisons of footprints at new sites under study with previously named ichnotaxa." — James O.
