About the book

"Since its Founding in 1869, the American Museum of Natural History has stood as one of the world's greatest repositories of scientific information and investigation." "This book offers a backstage tour through the halls and history of the Museum, venturing into ornithology, invertebrates, zoology, entomology, herpetology, and other disciplines, celebrating the treasures and the scientists responsible for bringing them to the light of day."--BOOK JACKET.

First sentence: James L. Clark wasn't alone among the early employees of the American Museum of Natural History in risking his life for science.
