In Search of Sea Dragons – Book signing and author talk

Join Matthew on an enthralling journey into the distant past as he recounts tales from the beaches of South Wales, Somerset and North Yorkshire, where he searches for the fossilised bones of great marine reptiles, the ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs. After surviving a terrifying accident in the mountains, Matthew took up a new hobby, fossil hunting, and quickly progressed from amateur to expert collector. Whilst sharing the secrets behind some of his most extraordinary finds, Matthew will also offer practical advice for those looking to start on their own Jurassic journey of discovery and wonder.
