Description

In 1922, the British archaeologist Henry Carter exposed King Tutankhamun’s grave, lighting the glories of an old world. And as the world recognized the remarkable thought that offered Peterson worldwide renown and an indelible devote history, from the time of his demise, he had been nearly destroyed by the discovery. Today, in a sensational accomplishment of narrative non-fiction, Daniel Meyerson has created an exciting and evocative account of the amazing man and his times.Carter started his profession inauspiciously. In the age of seventeen–unknown, inexperienced, untried–he was employed as a copyist of grave artwork from the bold, brilliant, and strongly unkempt father of modern archaeology, Watts.
