Walking Among Pharaohs

George Reisner brought in the modern age of archaeology, and made some spectacular finds along the way.
Peter Der Manuelian dives into the life of Reisner, from his beginnings, through education, and then into the field of archaeology. While there were some bumps along the way, Reisner continued to rise above, and push through, becoming the father of modern archaeology (although some argue that Howard Carter also bears this title), and bringing forth some of the great finds that we see today.

I enjoyed reading through this book! There was a lot of information, but it was broken down in pretty easy to follow segments, and there were some images throughout, lending to the subject matter at hand. When this is in print form, I would love to see a copy, as I feel that the images will better suited in that format.

Overall, fabulous read! If you are interested in Egyptian history, then you are not going to want to miss this book! I absolutely LOVED it!
