History by the Book meets to discuss historical fiction and non-fiction books. We explore the deeper stories behind historical events and periods in the past.
This month we are reading: Dinosaurs at the Dinner Party by Edward Dolnick
In the early 1800s, the discovery of fossilized dinosaur tracks and enormous bones upended humanity's understanding of the world. Dolnick chronicles a riveting journey, highlighting key figures like Mary Anning and William Buckland, who helped piece together the story of these prehistoric giants. This tale showcases how these accidental discoveries forced Victorians to rethink everything they knew about life and history.
