Title: Museums and memory
Description: "The essays in this volume consider museums from personal experience and historical study, and from the memories of museum visitors, curators, and scholars." "Representing a variety of fields - history, anthropology, art history, and museum scholarship - the contributors discuss museums across the disciplinary boundaries that have separated art museums from natural history museums or local history museums from national galleries."--BOOK JACKET.
