From a skeleton, a skull, a mere fragment of burnt thighbone, Dr. WilliamMaples can deduce the age, gender, and ethnicity of a murder victim, the mannerin which the person was dispatched, and, ultimately, the identity of thekiller. In "Dead Men Do Tell Tales," Dr. Maples revisits his strangest, most interesting, and most horrific investigations, from the baffling cases of conquistador Francisco Pizarro and Vietnam MIAs to the mysterious deaths of President Zachary Taylor and the family of Czar Nicholas II."When he s not shattering myths about maggots, Dr. Maples is delightfully unraveling true murder mysteries, ancient and modern. He s not just another clever forensic detective -- he s a poet, a philosopher, and a sly commentator on the fractured human condition, pre-and post-mortem." -- Carl Hiaasen, author of "Strip Tease" and "Native Tongue" "Whether Maples subjects are famous or anonymous, it is how he tells their stories that makes this book so fascinating and -- in its fashion --delightful." --Jonathan Yardley, "Washington Post Book World" "William R. Maples and Michael Browning could ve written a dry clinical analysis of forensic anthropology; instead they tell tales better than the dead could for themselves." -- "New York Times Book Review"
