From his stunning discovery of "Tyrannosaurus rex "one hundred
years ago to the dozens of other important new dinosaur species he
found, Barnum Brown led a remarkable life (1873OCo1963), spending
most of it searching for fossilsOCoand sometimes oilOCoin every
corner of the globe. One of the most famous scientists in the world
during the middle of the twentieth century, BrownOCowho lived fast,
dressed to the nines, gambled, drank, smoked, and was known as a
ladiesOCO manOCobecame as legendary as the dinosaurs he uncovered.
"Barnum Brown "brushes off the loose sediment to reveal the man
behind the legend. Drawing on BrownOCOs field correspondence and
unpublished notes, and on the writings of his daughter and his two
wives, it discloses for the first time details about his life and
travelsOCofrom his youth on the western frontier to his spying for
the U.S. government under cover of his expeditions. This absorbing
biography also takes full measure of BrownOCOs extensive scientific
accomplishments, making it the definitive account of the life and
times of a singular man and a superlative fossil hunter.
