What is important to me is that I have the great good fortune to spend my days doing something I love, and being given the opportunity to make a difference in the world.

This spectacular book uses carefully selected objects to illustrate the entire ten years of painstaking excavation and documentation carried out by Howard Carter and his team. Following the chambers of the tomb in the order in which Carter excavated them, it displays the site’s most magnificent artifacts, including all of the objects in current Tutankhamun exhibitions.
The superb images allow the objects from the tomb to be seen in even more detail than is possible with the naked eye.
