Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Central Asiatic Expeditions, Vol. 1: American Museum of Natural History, Preliminary Reports Vol; I, 1918-1925 The Central Asiatic Expeditions of the American Museum of Natural History, under the leadership of Roy Chapman Andrews, actually began in the year 1916 with the first collecting tour of the Leader accompanied by Mrs. Andrews, into the western Chinese Province of Yun-nan. The exploration continued under Doctor Andrews' leadership in the First, Second and Third Asiatic Expeditions, and all the scientific results are now embraced under the general title of Central Asiatic Expeditions. Beginning in 1916, Doctor Andrews has contributed to Asia Magazine and other periodicals, as listed in the bibliography included in this volume, a series of articles on the organization, personnel, narrative and discoveries of the Expeditions, which will be comprised in Volume I, 'Narrative of the Expeditions, ' of the series of twelve volumes in which the scientific results of the Expedition will be republished in permanent form. Volume II of the series, 'Geological Reconnaissance in Mongolia, ' covers the work of Messrs. Berkey and Morris to the end of the year 1925, and will appear during the present year. Meanwhile, sixty-three preliminary scientific papers, as listed in the bibliography of this volume, have been published, chiefly in the American Museum Bulletin and Novitates, reprints of which are collected and bound together in the present volume. This volume is issued especially for the convenience of specialists and investigators actually engaged in present researches in the same fields of Geology, Palaeontology and Zoology. While designed for personal use, the volumes are addressed and donated to the institutions to which the recipients are attached, to become part of the permanent libraries of these institutions. A special branch of the American Museum Library is to be devoted to Central Asiatic exploration, especially in the regions covered by our expeditions, and libraries and individuals are invited to contribute in return for the present volume, which is sent out in the spirit of international exchange and cooperation.

Book excerpt: In this 2018 New York Times Notable Book,Paige Williams "does for fossils what Susan Orlean did for orchids" (Book Riot) in her account of one Florida man's attempt to sell a dinosaur skeleton from Mongolia--a story "steeped in natural history, human nature, commerce, crime, science, and politics" (Rebecca Skloot). In 2012, a New York auction catalogue boasted an unusual offering: "a superb Tyrannosaurus skeleton." In fact, Lot 49135 consisted of a nearly complete T. bataar, a close cousin to the most famous animal that ever lived. The fossils now on display in a Manhattan event space had been unearthed in Mongolia, more than 6,000 miles away. At eight-feet high and 24 feet long, the specimen was spectacular, and when the gavel sounded the winning bid was over $1 million. Eric Prokopi, a thirty-eight-year-old Floridian, was the man who had brought this extraordinary skeleton to market. A onetime swimmer who spent his teenage years diving for shark teeth, Prokopi's singular obsession with fossils fueled a thriving business hunting, preparing, and selling specimens, to clients ranging from natural history museums to avid private collectors like actor Leonardo DiCaprio. But there was a problem. This time, facing financial strain, had Prokopi gone too far? As the T. bataar went to auction, a network of paleontologists alerted the government of Mongolia to the eye-catching lot. As an international custody battle ensued, Prokopi watched as his own world unraveled. In the tradition of The Orchid Thief, The Dinosaur Artist is a stunning work of narrative journalism about humans' relationship with natural history and a seemingly intractable conflict between science and commerce. A story that stretches from Florida's Land O' Lakes to the Gobi Desert, The Dinosaur Artist illuminates the history of fossil collecting--a murky, sometimes risky business, populated by eccentrics and obsessives, where the lines between poacher and hunter, collector and smuggler, enthusiast and opportunist, can easily blur. In her first book, Paige Williams has given readers an irresistible story that spans continents, cultures, and millennia as she examines the question of who, ultimately, owns the past.
