    A window into history!
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2024*

After visiting the American Museum of Natural History In New York City earlier this summer, and admiring their amazing dioramas featuring taxidermied specimens, I discovered that this book existed and had to own it. Since it’s arrival, I have combed through the pages and read the history of how this beautiful museum created. Some of the most spectacular permanent exhibits I’ve ever seen. This book is second to none and really should be reprinted.

    Step Inside the Dioramas
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2010*

I have been going to the American Museum of Natural History since about age 4 (I am long past four...and even forty!) Unlike other things that were fun in childhood and diminish in interest with age, the American Museum of Natural History continues to fascinate me. This book has added a whole new dimension to that fascination.I never fully appreciated the artistry that went into these dioramas - and it is not a hyperbole to say blood sweat and tears as several exhibition leaders were attacked by animals or died of illness collecting these specimens.This book is a combination of beautifully done photographs (far better than anything you can get with your camera there), stories of the people that made the dioramas and extensive information on how the dioramas were made, covering the taxidermy, scene painting, and other modeling.Read this before you visit and it will enhance your trip there. Read it after and you'll want to go back! Highly recommended.

    This book is beyond wonderful! For anyone who grew up in New York ...
  

*by H***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2015*

This book is beyond wonderful!  For anyone who grew up in New York City, and visited the Museum of Natural History (school trip?) this will bring back memories of standing in front of these huge, realistic dioramas with your mouth open!  Guests of the Museum hardly ever think how they got there, who painted them, how they did the research.  This book will make you fall in love all over again.  Hard to believe that these marvelous paintings were done 50-75 years ago, and they have never been moved out for a more modern exhibit!  That's classy!
