Most people have heard of Egyptian mummies and know the history behind them. But what about other, more local mummies, like the mumrny of an outlaw that was used on the set of The Six Million Dollar Man? How did the eighty-seven-year-old mummified remains of a fugitive end up as a prop for a TV show? In a series of fascinating chapters, Brenda Z. Guiberson tells the exciting true tales of several North American mummies that helped to solve ancient mysteries--or became mysteries themselves. Mummy Mysteries is filled with photos and detailed illustrations that give clues to each puzzle. And at the end of the book, the author sets up six mysteries that let the readers become archaeological detectives.
Brenda Z. Guiberson's nonfiction books include Into the Sea, Spoonbill Swamp, and Cactus Hotel. She makes her home in Seattle, Washington.
Although I am a little disappointed with this version (I would like this particular piece to have more fullness and complexity), I am delighted with the book as a whole. Somehow I thought it was a longer dissertation, but instead was fairly brief compared to most books on this subject. He is surprising as he doesn't look at all like the 'Lothario' type in face quite the reverse. However, on the same note, there are such normal things that we're all comfortable with, that the story never feels too foreign or too out of the realm of possibilities. This coloring book packs a double wallop. Wallis Budge's 1899 translation, with a new introduction tacked onto the beginning.
This wouldn't necessarily be a problem--Budge's translation is good enough--but the presentation is particularly shoddy and far below the standards usually upheld by Penguin. Don't miss out.. So they join a last man standing club. someone ran spellcheck but didn't read the text to see if it made sense.
