HAWASS, ZAHI - Valley of the Golden Mummies

NY: Harry N. Abrams, 2000. 0810939428. 0 To Be Determined. First Edition. Hard Cover. ISBN: 0810939428. An exploration, highlighted by hundreds of colorful photographs, of an incredible archaeological find in Egypt, from the excavation's director, discusses the hundreds of mummies, many wearing gold masks, that have been found and explains the find's historical significance. The richly illustrated text also provides a detailed account of the work of modern Egyptologists, who accord their subjects a respect not often shown by earlier generations of field workers; as Hawass remarks, "We always treat a mummy as if it were still a person, just as we would hope to be treated ourselves in similar circumstances." It's an altogether fascinating excursion into long-ago times. --Gregory McNamee.
