dragonology
Dragonology is a fictional book series about dragons. It contains information on dragons including how to befriend and protect dragons. It includes an alphabet of the dragon language, ancient runes, and replica samples of Dragon scales, hide, and dust. Other books in the series expand on these concepts and explain them in more detail than the original.
The toys include figures and models of the various types of Dragons, a strategic board game, and a card game.
The first book is edited by Dugald A. Steer, with other contributors credited as Helen Ward (Scientific Artist), Douglas Carrel (Chief Draughtsman), Wayne Anderson (Pictorial Artist), and Nghiem Ta (Artistic Direction).
==Background==
The fictional character Dr. Ernest Drake is described as living in the 19th century and being a member of the made-up Secret and Ancient Society of Dragonologists (S.A.S.D.). Dragonology is the fictional study and conservation of dragons, who during Dr. Drake's time were becoming extinct due to rapidly increasing human population. The drawn photograph of him in Dragonology bears a very close resemblance to Steer's great grandfather. His books, Dragonology: The Complete Book of Dragons (one hundred copies printed in 1896, supposedly), The Dragonology Handbook: A Practical Course in Dragons (supposedly 1893), and Tracking And Taming Dragons: A Guide For Beginners were republished by the Five Mile Press, with Dragonology actually published on October 1st, 2003, who have also created facsimiles of Wizardology and the Wizardology Handbook (alledgedly written by fictional character Merlin, the legendary wizard ), Egyptology (fictional character Emily Sands ), Pirateology (fictional captain William Lubber ) and Monsterology [again by fictional author of ''Dragonology'' Ernest Drake.
