About the Book: Who Was King Tut?
Ever since Howard Carter uncovered King Tutankhamuns tomb in 1922, the young
pharaoh has become a symbol of the wealth and mystery of ancient Egypt. Now, a
two-and-a-half-year-long museum exhibit of Tuts treasures is touring major
cities in the U.S., drawing record crowds. This Who Was . . . ? is complete with
100 black-andwhite illustrations and explains the life and times of this ancient
Egyptian ruler, covering the story of the tombs discovery, as well as myths and
so-called mummy curses.
