Excellent collection of case files from a well-known forensic anthropologist. Great read if you are a fan of CSI, Patricia Cornwell, adn all things forensic!

This book was a fasinating look at forensic anthropology. Dr. Maples insights and experince are top notch. I really enjoyed the historical mysteries he was brought in to examine. I read the chapter on Zachary Taylor several times. Anyone who enjoys myteries and science of sovling them, READ THIS BOOK!
