More about the book

The narrative centers on the fierce rivalry between paleontologists Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh during the Gilded Age, sparked by the discovery of dinosaur fossils in the Wild West. This intense competition, known as the Bone War or Fossil Feud, not only highlights the quest for scientific recognition and natural treasures but also reflects broader themes of ambition and the conquest of the West, marking a significant chapter in both scientific history and American culture.
