Why are these splendid creatures no longer with us? This compelling book explores the reasons for these extinctions and provides a tour of mass extinctions throughout earth's history, including the great comet crash that killed off the dinosaurs. Brilliantly written, \u003cb\u003eThe Call of Distant Mammoths\u003c\/b\u003e is an engaging exploration of the history of life and the importance of humanity as an evolutionary force.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter D.
