History; Artifacts; Archaeology; This is the first book deliberately planned as a step-by-step trip through the richly furnished funerary chambers of a pharaoh who lived during one of the most splendid periods of ancient Egypt. It presents the fascinating archaeological record of the exploration of the tomb in black and white photographs taken by Harry Burton, the expEd.'s photographer who captured the cluttered magnificence of each room as a whole as well as closeups of objects both precious and mundane. This book is sensitively written by the author, is a time machine reaching back thousands of years. (167 Pgs.) Pictorial DJ and Book VVG/VVG
