Legends of dragons have always fascinated me.  As a kid, I read dozens of books about dragons, some fictional, others reportedly true.  And I loved every word.

My passion for early earth history, as recorded in Genesis, has lead me to many stories and reports of man encountering these incredible creatures.  This makes sense from a young earth point of view, because God created most of the dinosaurs on Day Six, along with the rest of the land animals. Of course, aquatic dinosaurs would have been created on Day Five…

But the word “dinosaur” wasn’t coined until 1841 by Sir Richard Owen.  What were these creatures called before the word dinosaur was invented?

Dragons.

Master Books has put together an incredible summary of dragons in many different cultures around the world, called Dragons:  Legends and Lore of Dinosaurs.  Piecing together eyewitness accounts and multi-cultural stories, along with many other evidences, they’ve created an extremely interesting account.

Dragons are found in dozens of cultures around the world.  They are mentioned in many ancient texts, including more than two dozen references in the Bible alone.

Along with this evidence, there are many archaeological finds that have dragons depicted on them.

How did so many diverse societies develop such similar creatures.  Mythology isn’t enough of an answer.  There had to be something more.  That these people saw such creatures is the only possible explanation.

I’ve read much of the information and stories presented in Dragons:  Legends and Lore of Dinosaurs before.  However, there were a few places where I read something new.

Dragons:  Legends and Lore of Dinosaurs kept me fascinated the entire time I perused it.  It will make an excellent resource to keep on my shelf with the rest of my creation materials.

This book is incredibly interesting.  I suggest you read it today!
