Most major recent advances in understanding the history of life on Earth have been through the study of exceptionally well preserved biotas (Fossil-Lagersttten). These are windows on the history of life on Earth and can provide a fairly complete picture of the evolution of ecosystems through time. This book follows the success of Evolution of Fossil Ecosystems by the same authors which covered Fossil-Lagersttten around the world. The success of the first book prompted this new book which draws on four localities from the original book and adds another ten, all located in North America.
Following an introduction to Fossil-Lagersttten, each chapter deals with a single fossil locality. Each chapter contains a brief introduction placing the Lagersttte in an evolutionary context  there then follows a history of study of the locality  the background sedimentology, stratigraphy and palaeoenvironment  a description of the biota  discussion of the palaeoecology, and a comparison with other Lagersttten of a similar age and/or environment. At the end of the book is an Appendix listing museums in which to see exhibitions of fossils from each locality and suggestions for visiting the sites.
