This book is perhaps the largest printed compilation of evidences (with never before presented material!) supporting the view that mankind and dinosaurs (aka: dragons, behemoths, etc.) were contemporaries. It was born out of the desire to present a more thorough argument than what is generally given on this particular topic. Effort was made to provide correct and precise manuscript sources. Careful research and the re-analysis of various "evidences" led to the correction of several widely-held proclamations. Divided into two sections, this book first gives a brief overview of both theological and scientific arguments supporting a young earth history and a single global catastrophic flood, as described in creation accounts in virtually every major culture on the planet. The second and more substantial section describes often overlooked evidences found throughout the earth that indicate man and dinosaurs lived side-by-side throughout much of recorded history. Anatomical consistencies with fossils, artistic consistencies in archaeology, and cross-cultural descriptive consistencies are presented. The ultimate goal is to affirm that the Bible, particularly the creation account in Genesis, can be trusted and taken literally. These two sections go hand-in-hand and present a challenging argument to the mainstream geologic/historic paradigm. If the earth is young, and a global flood is responsible for nearly all fossils we see, then it is not difficult to determine that man and dinosaurs were contemporaries at some point. Each section strengthens the other and the entire book should be seen as a single argument. Great care has been taken to attain a high level of integrity in this work to support such an unconventional (and often ridiculed) view. It is written with hope that the reader is honored by the substantial evidence gathered and will find it compelling as well. I believe that the Bible is trustworthy from beginning to end.  I also happen to love dinosaurs and have pondered the mystery as to their extinction.  What do these two subjects have in common? Well, if God truly created the universe in 6 literal days then it would be consistent to say that dinosaurs were created during the same week as mankind - not millions of years earlier.  This would also mean that there should be consistent evidence for such a claim ... and there is.   For example*: There are some presentations on dinosaurs which claim that Marco Polo, the famous European explorer to the Far East, said that the chariot of the Emperor of China was pulled by dragons.  This claim is incorrect.  However, Marco Polo's account does describe the following creature in East Asia: 1. Classified it as a serpent with scales 2. Lived in caves in the mountains 3. Would travel to a water source 4. Dragged its large body along the ground 5. Causing a trench to be made 6. It was killed by the Chinese by placing stakes in the ground along the serpent's trench so that the creature would impale itself causing its own demise. This is an interesting description but I wondered if there was any other corroborating evidence to validate such a fantastic tale?  Yes!  The Nordic Saga, "the Story of the Volsungs" and a separate Danish account consistently describe these same six items except for one difference.  Apparently the Europeans were willing to risk their lives in killing these serpents by piercing their bellies with a spear, whereas the Chinese utilized a much safer approach.   Another example of a consistent description between two completely separate cultures is of a serpent described in an English pamphlet in the region of Sussex, England, in the summer of 1614.  This description is very consistent with three separate ancient Chinese historic records that describe a similar creature called the "kiao" - a type of dragon.  The P´iya 埤雅, the P´ei yuen kwang cheu ki 裴淵廣州記, and the Mihk´oh hwui si 黑客琿屖 -- Compared with the English pamphlet "True and Wonderful": 1. had 4 legs 2. was reptilian / scaly 3. was larger than a man 4. had a long thin neck and tail with thicker body 5. had a white ring around its neck - like a necklace 6. had a dark colored ("blackish" or blue) back 7. had a red colored breast 8. used a type of venom to subdue its victim 9. both cultures classified it as a dragon (Chinese= " lung " 龍埤雅/ 裴淵廣州記 / 黑客琿屖)   Finally, the Bible speaks of not only physical dragons in general,but also of: the behemoth (the most astounding creature God made that inhabited the land), the leviathan (the dangerous serpent of the sea), and the lesser known flying fiery serpents (serpents seraphim) that plagued the Jews during their exodus.   There are also many non-Biblical historical accounts that describe these same creatures mentioned in the Bible.  For instance, Herodotus, among others, describe a flying serpent in the middle east that was "fiery / bright" and was extremely dangerous due to a poisonous bite.
