Reviews

"""Mischievous Creatures recaptures the fascinating world of two sister scientists in brilliant detail. The Morrises' lab was their garden, where their unsung work changed the science of their time."" --Kate Brown, author of Manual for Survival ""In Catherine McNeur's expert narration, a co-biography of sister naturalists in nineteenth-century Philadelphia becomes an excavation of power structures underlying science and history. A triumph of investigative research and artful writing."" --Jared Farmer, author of Elderflora"
