It's hard to imagine the study of human origins without the Leakey family. In the process they have practically defined the field of paleoanthropology, while eliciting admiration as well as controversies and criticism.

In this engrossing biography, prolific writer and educator Mary Bowman-Kruhm tells the story of three generations of Leakeys. As the author shows, Leakey struggled in the early years, often barely able to make a living.
