Until now, scarcely anything has ever been written about the author of Gray's Anatomy, Henry Gray, and even less about his collaborator, the artist H.V. Carter. The Anatomist is both a significant biography of the book itself and of the book's two creators. The Anatomist will appeal not only to anatomists, artists, and anglophiles, but equally, to lovers of narrative nonfiction. Written in Bill Hayes's signature style, the interweaving of medical history and personal narrative honed in his two previous books, Sleep Demons and Five Quarts, The Anatomist is a tale well-told, entertaining, moving, and lyrically written.
