- The acclaimed Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson tells the riveting stories of the men and women whose obsession with Egypt's ancient civilisation drove them to uncover its secrets. Travellers and treasure-hunters, ethnographers, antiquarians and archaeologists: whatever their motives, all understood that in pursuing Egyptology they were part of a greater endeavour - to reveal a lost world, buried for centuries beneath the sands. <b>Perfect for readers of Peter Frankopan and Mary Beard.</b>
