The Tomb of Tutankhamen

The Tomb of Tutankhamen

The leader of the excavation offers a firsthand description of the remarkable events surrounding the 1922 discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb in Egypt's Valley of Kings and of the unique and priceless treasures that were found there. Howard Carter did not live long enough to write further about his finds, and "The Tomb of Tutankhamen stands as his only record of the extraordinary discovery. Abridged from the original three volumes, this edition features color plates and 65 monochrome photos taken at the time of the excavation, as well as 2 appendices. This classic adventure tells the story of a journey that may never be repeated--a trip back through 3,000 years to discover the life--anddeath--of a pharaoh.
