## Description

Dinosaur Wars, from producer Mark Davis, is the story of two talented scientists, O.C. Marsh and Edward Cope, whose once professional rivalry soured into a bitter personal feud. Together, Marsh and Cope were responsible for identifying more than 142 different species and for introducing dinosaurs into the American imagination, but their legacy would be forever marred by two decades of ruthless infighting, espionage, and sabotage.

Review: Dinosaur Wars - . "Dinosaur Wars" is a nicely done PBS Special focusing on the rivalry between Victorian-era paleontologists Othniel Charles Marsh of Yale and Edward Drinker Cope of Philadelphia. As pioneers in the field of digging for dinosaurs, their fierce competition ended in both triumph and tragedy. The hour-long production includes on-location footage, historic documents, old photos, and a suitably knowledgeable smattering of modern paleontologists and scholars. This is not a movie for little kids, but can be a useful teaching tool for college and university students. I plan to show this to my HIS 112 students when we talk about Western Expansion and the Gilded Age. It is sure to be a hit. The appropriate companion book is Url Lanham's "Bone Hunters" which goes into greater detail about the early paleontological community than does the film. Kim Burdick Stanton, Delaware
