Clavin astonishes again with the story of the improbably named Barnum Brown (yes, his real name), who discovered the first complete skeleton fossil of T-Rex. What would little children and movie moguls have done without that amazing find! Read this for the man's amazing life and times both in America and around the world. And next time you visit the Museum of Natural History in New York, think of the guy who people thought had a nose for ancient, buried creatures from another era and world.
In this read, it was easy to sense Tom's enthusiasm and delight in the topic which had me going through drawers searching for some of my fossils!
Hmmm. Might be fun to give that a go!

His story would make for a great miniseries, especially if a T-Rex plays a supporting role.
