Bag om Mummy

This volume exhaustively discusses the details of mummies in Egyptian society. Preservation of the body was the chief end and aim of every Egyptian who wished to attain everlasting life.

Egypt lives again through its dead and Budge gives the reader a complete picture of mummies and their history. Illustrated.
