When the Earth Was Green: Plants, Animals, and Evolution's Greatest Romance

This book tells the story of the long-standing relationship between prehistoric plants and life on Earth. By studying fossils of plants, we can glimpse the lost worlds of billions of years of evolutionary history.

From the growth of plants that allowed dinosaurs, saber-toothed cats, and humans to evolve, to the oxygenation of the atmosphere and the formation of forests that shaped our ancestors' anatomy, plants have played a crucial role in shaping our world. Riley Black guides readers through the story of plant evolution, highlighting the interactions between species that have helped shape the world we live in today.
