Hartland traces the preparation of a diplodocus fossil for exhibition at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. With each step, from discovery of the dinosaur remains through transport to the museum to assembly of the fossil and production of its installation, the text provides accessible information about the overall process. Eye-pleasing illustrations incorporate humor while detailing the behind-the-scenes work.
