From Publishers Weekly
Forensic anthropology is a relatively new science of identifying the nameless dead solely on the basis of their bones. Tracing the career of one of the field's foremost practitioners, Texan Clyde Snow, Joyce, an editor of New Scientist , and Stover, of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, here present a history of the discipline and explain its techniques. Among Snow's cases are those of Nazi doctor Josef Mengele, who reportedly drowned in Brazil; General Custer, whose remains were supposedly transferred to West Point but are probably still in Montana, according to the authors; and many of the "disappeared" murdered by the military regimes in Argentina. Those interested in archeology, anthropology, the history of science and criminal investigation will find this study of the "archivists of death" vastly interesting and awe-inspiring.

YA-- A thorough, well-researched book about Dr. Clyde Snow, America's leading expert on forensic anthropology. Christopher details many cases about which Snow was consulted, the most famous being the conclusive identification of Josef Mengele, the infamous Nazi "Angel of Death," in Brazil. The book is fascinating reading for those interested in the topic; it has extensive notes and lots of pictures. --Susan McFaden, Fairfax County Public Library, VA
