Dominated by two talented and competitive scientists, O.C. Marsh and Edward Drinker Cope, by the late 1870s, the emerging field of vertebrate paleontology had become a race between their teams of collectors--one of which was headed by geologist Arthur Lakes. This facsimile edition of Lakes' journals recounts the dangers and hardships of scientific research during that exciting time. 13 photos. 24 drawings.
