A  couple of popular books that I like are:  "The Ultimate Dinosaur Book"  by
David Lambert - Dorling Kinderslev - 1993
and:  "The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs" by Dr David Norman Crescent
Books - 1985.  I've seen both recently in your average B. Dalton at the Mall.
 Both have time scales for each genera, as well as location maps, skeletal
information and good illustrations.

P.S.  T Rex certainly looks like a top of the food chain predator to me,
capable of taking down, or snaping up a wide variety of its contemporaries.
 Of the modern big predetors, Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my, I can't
think of many that are real particular about their next meal, Most are
oportunistic scavengers as well.  (It's like their second job.)  I think it's
silly to talk about T Rex being one to the exclusion of the other.  Where's
the evolutionary advantage to ever passing up a good meal?
