Bøker av Carl Graves

Amelia B Edwards , author of the hugely successful and still widely-read illustrated travelogue, A Thousand Miles up the Nile, was so much more than a pioneer of Egyptology: writer, musician, artist, activist and explorer. This book offers new revelations about her life, and the founding of the Egypt Exploration Fund (now Society).

Howard Carter, who discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun, began his career as an artist working for the Egypt Exploration Fund in 1891. By shining a spotlight on Carter's watercolour painting of a scene from the shrine to Anubis in Hatshepsut's temple, Carl Graves uncovers the life and legacy of one of Egypt's greatest archaeologists.
