"""With its combination of ethnography, archaeology, natural sciences, and the archives, this volume is not only beautifully illustrated: in its very form it mirrors an argument for an increased connection between disciplines whose boundaries are still regularly upheld, and with essays that span disciplines and decades, and even eons, Lohman et al. demonstrate that the natural history museum can be the ideal venue for conversations that are both historically important and contemporarily relevant."" BC Studies No. 190"""
