5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent and Insightful Companion, July 19, 2005
This review is from: The Rough Guide to Tutankhamun: The King - The Treasure - The Dynasty (Paperback)
I read this book before visiting the Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs in Los Angeles, and it really filled in the background for me. It also served well as a guide to the exhibition itself, and now afterwards I have been reading through parts of it again, discovering new insights. A truly excellent book for anyone interested in ancient Egypt -- whether you go to the Tutankhamun exhibition or not. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Really good, August 16, 2005
This review is from: The Rough Guide to Tutankhamun: The King - The Treasure - The Dynasty (Paperback)
This is a really good book, wonderful background on Tutankhamun and his times, full of information and a great guide to further reading. I recommend this book to anyone interested in Tutankhamun or in Ancient Egypt generally, and certainly to anyone thinking of going to the Tut exhibition.
