Description

In the earliest years of the nineteenth century, Mary Anning spends her days scouring the cliffs near her Dorset home. She looks for the fossilised remains of sea creatures to sell to the gentry for money to feed her stricken family. Only Mary seems to have the determination and passion to find a way to save them all.
