Product Description

A fascinating look beneath the bandages for an exploration of Egyptian mummies--who they were, how they were embalmed, where they were buried, and how they were rediscovered. Full-page scenes take the reader back to the time of the pharaohs, while engaging text reveals the secrets of the long dead.

4.0 out of 5 stars A well written overview of the Egyptian mummy process., January 29, 1999
By A Customer
The book highlights the ancient rites and beliefs in the art of mummification. It covers the people, the science and the process involved. For a beginner to an intermediate reader, the knowledge about this ancient art becomes a great learning experience in "The Best Book of Mummies". This book is enjoyed and well read by the children who received it.
