## Description

The Discovery of the Tomb of Tutankhamen (Egypt) [Carter, Howard, Mace, A. C.] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Discovery of the Tomb of Tutankhamen (Egypt)

Review: Excellent story and adventure of never giving up. - Having visited the tomb in the Valley of the Kings last year it is a fascinating read. All that remains of Tutankhamen in the tomb is his body and sarcophagus, the rest of the objects are in the Cairo Museum.
Review: It's like being there! - There are two things that make this book special: Mr. Carter's description of not only what he sees as he enters the tomb, but his emotions as well. The other special feature is that the book's pictures have been interjected within his story in close proximity to what Carter is describing at the time. Carter also makes it extremely easy to understand what he is describing by referencing specific plate numbers. This is useful when the reader is not familiar with the name of an item because it never existed in modern times. For a person who enjoys reading stories of true events, Mr. Carter has given us a gem of a book. My only wish is that Mr. Carter had available to him at the time the technology of color film. His descriptions of what he sees and the stiking colors he witnessed in the tomb leave one yearning for color prints.

We are all fortunate that Howard Carter and his team discovered the Boy King’s tomb. His dedication to his process allowed us to share in the discovery like it happened yesterday
