so as you know david peters was infamous for making the most horrendous and most terrible pterosaur reconstructions plus including other dinosaur reconstructions you see but im gonna show you the books and sculptures that he have done on so lets start with his book Giants of Land, Sea & Air, Past & Present published in 1986 as It was the first book to feature all of its illustrated animals to the same scale alongside humans who ran or swam through each page spread

Some of these are horrendously out of scale (the condor in particular).

[MaastrichtianGuy]

the second book that david peter has done on is A Gallery of Dinosaurs & Other Early Reptiles published in 1989 as it followed in the footsteps and shadow of Giants. Unfortunately it did not get the PR that its novel predecessor received, despite having better graphics and a writer who was more deeply vested in the subject matter

Well, that was a fun trip down Memory Lane. I still have the second book, but I have no idea what happened to my copy of Giants.

Unfortunately, Peters trashed his reputation a long time ago with his preposterous claims about pterosaur reconstructions. And he continues to persist.

[MaastrichtianGuy]

the third book he made was From the Beginning - The Story of Human Evolution.Published in 1991 as this is a black and white book showed the evolution of humans from chemicals and one-celled organisms through the various sorts of worms, fish, reptiles, mammals and primates which were our antecedents.

Hate to play the role of backseat moderator, but are those books in the public domain? It's possible that Dr. Admin could get in trouble for hosting effectively pirated copies of these books.
