Pictures From An Expedition
BY DIANE SMITH
Brief Description:
Told through the reminiscences of scientific illustrator Eleanor Peterson, Pictures from an Expedition is set in 1876 and tells of a diverse band of adventurers heading west to the desolate badlands of Montana to work on a dinosaur fossil dig. The story recounts the experiences of this field crew as they argue over theories of evolution and contend with rival scientists. I thought Quakers featured in the book, but haven't spotted any yet - however it is a good book!
