‘Sins of Shovel’ Review With Author Rachel Morgan

On this episode, Emily Long, Chelsi Slotten, and Kirsten Lopez are joined by Rachel Morgan, author of the fantastic book ‘Sins of the Shovel: Looting, Murder, and the Evolution of American Archaeology.’ We asked Rachel all about her motivations for writing about the history of how American archaeology came to be, along with highlighting a host of unique looters, archaeologists, and reporters along the way. This book is great for non-archaeologists and archaeologists alike!
