About me
My walks and talks
What's on in West Sussex
I am not a prolific author but over the years have written my fair share of geological publications - some with the assistance of people sharing my interests. Items are listed below with the most recent first.
In addition, you will find me writing on a regular basis for Outcrop, the newsletter of the West Sussex Geological Society and occasional field trip reports in the magazine of the Geologists’ Association and the publications of various other organisations.
Local geological guides have included:
Some of these are still in print, although I intend to update them as soon as time permits.- Bone, D. A. 1998 (and subsequent reprints). A Brief Guide to the Geology and Fossils of Bognor Regis. Bognor Regis Museum.
- Bone, A. E. & Bone, D. A. 1985 (and subsequent reprints). Fossils from Bracklesham to Selsey. Chichester District Museum.
