I used to have a copy of The Dragon Seekers by . um...(invokes Amazon)... McGgowan which is a popular history sort of book about the early fossil hunters and how they figured out the underpinnings of evolution. I remember it being an engaging read. If I could find my copy I'd be happy to pass in on to you. It could help give you an overview of what was going on in your period. Amazon also quotes a PW review which recommends Terrible Lizard by Cadbury.
