Synopses:

*History of Life*  Reading November 5

*History of Life* is about an adopted Evolutionary Biologist who takes a
road trip in the American SouthWest in order to meet members of her birth
family.  The London Bridge, Wal-mart, Elvis Presely, Cowboys and Indians,
Tyrannosaurus Rex Tracks.  Science versus religion, nature verses nurture
all comes to a head at the Four Corners Monument, where Utah, Colorado, New
Mexico and Arizona come together in a point.  Literally.
