Read the excerpt from "Bone Detective," by Lorraine Jean Hopping
The Hunley recovery team planned to display Diane's casts
in a museum that was about to be built. But did the casts
belong in a public exhibit? Some people objected to
displaying soldiers' remains-even though they were
plastic replicas. Diane saw nothing wrong with it. In fact,
she had no qualms about showing the real bones.
"If people want to really learn about the soldiers," she said,
"you have to show the bones. The bone is a record of a
person's life, especially the last part-the circumstances of
death."
How and why did the Hunley sink? What can we learn
about the lives--and deaths-of its ill-fated crew?
Scientists will likely be investigating the answers for years
to come, thanks in part to Diane's casts
