The Museum in America captures the life stories of thirteen
visionary museum leaders who helped transform the 19th century's
collection of curios into today's institution of public service and
education. In the lively style of Museum Masters, Alexander
recounts the stories of pioneers in American history, science, art,
and general museums. For anyone interested in the history of the
museum, this volume is the place to start.
