    Book Description:
    Book Description Curious Footprints: Professor Hitchcock's Dinosaur Tracks & Other Natural History Treasures at Amherst College tells the personal story of Edward Hitchcock, the college's third president, an evangelical minister who amassed the world's largest collection of dinosaur tracks. In a fascinating twist, he tried to prove that the footprints were made not by dinosaurs, but by gigantic ancient birds. The second half of the book presents the luminous color photographs of Frank Ward, who was the Amherst College Photographer for 22 years. His photo essay captures the college's natural history artifacts in all their charm, discovering in them grace, humor, and mystery.
