Industry Reviews
"Through the immediacy of a 'you are there' narrative, readers observe the meticulousness found on a dig, share the exhilaration of each triumph, and cringe with every disappointment....This well-documented book is packed full of information about a man, his work, and an exciting, expanding period in natural history."
