Secrets of Earth and Sea

"Secrets of Earth and Sea" by Sir Ray Lankester is a collection of essays that uncovers the mysteries of our planet's past. Early humans, with skills and creativity we're only beginning to understand, populate the stories from the very beginning. Through the discovery of ancient artwork, the book looks at the cultural and artistic achievements of early people and their significance. The scientific exploration of prehistoric findings such as the carving of the earliest known picture in the world on a red deer antler offers insights into the evolution of life and the connections that weave through nature and human expression.

Sir Edwin Ray Lankester was a British zoologist.
