Review Excerpt:

At 150 years old, Gray’s Anatomy still sets the standard in medical textbooks, yet little has been written about its author, Henry Gray. Even less celebrated is Henry Carter, the illustrator. … Hayes explores the lives of these two men, balancing biographical chapters with his own experience in the anatomy classroom.
