Product Description
The tomb of Tutankhamun, with its treasures, has exerted a hold on the popular imagination ever since its discovery in 1922. This book is a detailed and comprehensive study of the archaeological discovery that has until now remained only a partly told story.

 This is a Tutankhamen experience January 7, 2002

For an armchair Tutankhamun experience this book is brilliant. Nicholas has crafted a book that takes the reader, photograph-by-photograph, illustration-by-illustration through the family history, the Valley of the Kings and the treasures discovered. For the Tutankhamun reader this book is the reference work for getting a visual impression of that relation, that funery pit, that adze, in fact, an Alladin's Cave of information, lavishly illustrated. I constantly refer to this companion to check out references in other books. The casual reader can go as far as they wish because the illustrations keep pulling you in deeper and deeper. If you intend visiting the Valley of the Kings and the Cairo museum this is one book you should have at your side.

This book is simply fanatastic ! The best book about Tutankhamun around - it is the most complete study of his life, his times, his world. You must buy it because there is no other book on the subject that even compares with it ! Enough information and photographs to keep you going for years ! I bought it five years ago and I am still referring to it...
A Wonderful book July 12, 2000

When Howard Carter discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun in 1922, he described the objects inside as 'wonderful things'...this book is just as wonderful. A brilliant documentary about Egyptian archaeology in the early 1900s, Carter's systematic perseverance, and a superb inventory of all things Tutankhamun. This fascinating and masterful book should be of interest to anyone who is interested in Egyptian history, Archaelogy, Tutankhamun, or gold, jewels and treasure!

This book goes over everything to do with Tutankhamun and more. It has an entire section about tutankhamun's life and times, several sections on the tomb itself and the funeral equipment found in it. The book reveals many things about tutankhamun which are not very comonley known and is filled with colourful pictures and diagrams. This book is probably one of the best books on Tutankhamun around today. Many of the other books by Nicholas Reeves are also worth a read. I highly recomend this book!
