The Paleontologist's Daughter
The Paleontologist’s Daughter by Katharine L. McKenna is a fascinating, high-spirited and charming memoir about growing up with one of the world’s preeminent paleontologists, Malcolm C. McKenna. What an extraordinary life story it tells—of fascinating adventures and fossil expeditions to Mongolia, the Grand Canyon, Easter Island, Navajo Mountain, and many other remote locales. Along the way we meet a host of interesting people, including other famous scientists, such as George Gaylord Simpson and Ned Colbert. This is a book not just for those with an interest in paleontology and natural history, but for anyone who loves exploration and adventure. I highly recommend it.
