Contents include: • the story of Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon's long quest for the tomb in the Valley of the Kings • double-page features on each stage of the discovery, each chamber of the tomb, and all the main treasures • extracts from Carter's notes and diaries and first-time publication of many of his drawings and reconstructions • fresh evidence from scholarly monographs on the shrines, chariots and other finds • a full reference section
