Details
The vibrant guide to the Natural History Museum at Tring has been developed to reflect the changes in the Museum’s collections and galleries. Written by Deirdre Janson-Smith following a series of interviews with people across the Museum, the Visitor Guide follows a simple route through the Museum starting with Gallery One.
Deirdre works through the essence of each of the galleries and weaves this with intriguing facts, things to look out for, quiz questions and fascinating stories relating to the collections. Packed with fun photography, the guide also explores those specimens stored behind-the-scenes and includes a brief history of the Museum itself.
