Sharks’ Teeth and Cetacean Bones from the Red Clay of the Tropical Pacific is a scientific book written by Charles Rochester Eastman and published in 1908. The book is a detailed study of the fossils found in the red clay of the tropical Pacific Ocean, specifically focusing on the teeth of sharks and the bones of cetaceans (whales, dolphins, and porpoises). Eastman’s research was conducted during the 1905-1906 Pacific Ocean Biological Survey, which was sponsored by the United States Bureau of Fisheries. The survey was conducted on board the USS Albatross and covered a vast area of the Pacific Ocean. Eastman’s study is based on the fossils collected during this survey.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of the survey and the methods used to collect and study the fossils. The second part is a detailed analysis of the fossils themselves. Eastman provides descriptions of the various species of sharks and cetaceans represented in the fossils, as well as information on their geographic distribution and evolution.Sharks’ Teeth and Cetacean Bones from the Red Clay of the Tropical Pacific is an important contribution to the field of marine paleontology. It provides valuable information on the evolution of sharks and cetaceans, as well as the environmental conditions of the Pacific Ocean during the time period represented by the fossils.
