JUPITER, Fla., May 20, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- It was 1851, and Darwin had published his theory on the evolution of the species. A couple of young men of means were enraptured with the theory that history was much deeper than four thousand years that the clergy had taught. They sought knowledge and fame, looking for the giant beast of the millennium long ago. Embark on a series of great adventures with The Cowboy and the Paleontologist by Cash Cashion.
Paleontologists Kope and Marsh were the bright shining glory boys who opened a new frontier, that of digging up dinosaur bones and delivering them to the museums of the East. With the great white hunters, Ryan and Cap, along with the Lakota Indians, the Chinese and the mystifying Masi, they went on a hunt for the skeakl a.k.a. the mountain devil, better known as Sasquatch or Big Foot.
This team of adventurers went on their second quest in South Africa, where their ultimate mission was to find Matthew Ferguson, an earl who murdered a wealthy mine owner-banker over a gambling debt. Lady Jane then joined them in an expedition south to Patagonia -- to the dinosaur graveyard and the mysterious tall Patagonia natives, who were the caretakers of the Golden Fleece animals that the Aztecs used for clothing.
They also went through dangerous exploits such as capturing Daniels a.k.a. the Black Dragon and saving the empress of Korea. These daring men just simply won't give up! So pack up your bags and get ready for a never-ending adventure with Cashion's The Cowboy and the Paleontologist.
