Not surprisingly, the book is strongest when Flannery focuses on evolution and other areas of biology related to his own scientific expertise. The author, who is a world-renowned paleontologist, also manages to articulate a great host of information surrounding the evolution of everything from deciduous plants to hunting and gathering societies on the American plains. In other places, he tackles the seriousness of the current global warming crisis and other climatic issues, such as when the planet might see another Ice Age (not soon, he assures us). He writes in a conversational tone, and while prone to annoying rhetorical flourishes - when ancient geological clues don't answer his inquiries, he tends to lapse into quasi-hypothetical call-and-response patterns - Flannery ably clarifies much debated points about patterns of extinction going back 65 million years. If you are prone to scientific musings, either because of some innate curiosity or simply because you tend to spend a lot of time outdoors, Flannery's latest work will be of some value to you.
Given the possibilities, it's too bad that the major thrills in this volume fail to do the subject matter full justice. The Eternal Frontier is a kind of nonfiction mystery book, examining the fossil record and geology for clues as to how native flora and fauna first evolved on the landmass we call home, and later turning its attention to how creatures and later peoples, primarily from Asia and Europe (or "Eurasia" as Flannery regularly and rightly refers to the planet's largest single landmass) have made North America their home as well.
