I don't have the time to look up the references for a detailed listing, but
each of the above characters has had at least one fairly recent biography:
Cope and Marsh are treated together in _The Fossil Feud_ by Elizabeth Shor
Owen is the subject of _Richard Owen: Victorian Naturalist_ by Nicolaas Rupke
Osborn is the subject of _An Agenda for Antiquity_ by Ronald Rainger
