Quest for Life in Amber Paperback - 1995
by George Poinar
In passages that read more like an Indiana Jones screenplay than scientific research, the Poinars describe how their hobby-turned-obsession ultimately led to a breakthrough scientific finding: the discovery of preserved insect DNA in amber. Photos.
First line
The clouds raced across the steel blue North Sea, and the dune plants bobbed up and down from the gusty winds.
