Reviews

Chuck Warner's Birds, Bones, and Beetles is a highly entertaining story about his grandfather, museum specialist Charles Bunker ( Bunk ), who was an early key figure of the University of Kansas Natural History Museum. This book's targeted, personable focus on Bunk and its easy-to-read style combine for an endearing tale. It is also an important piece of history for the University of Kansas Museum, following its early beginnings and its progress toward becoming a major institution. Warner's book is worth the read for anyone with an interest in the development of university-based natural history museums during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. - Lance Grande, author of Curators: Behind the Scenes of Natural History Museums
