The Valley of the Kings and the Theban Tombs

A new series of handy pocket guides for explorers of Egypt's rich past and exciting present, packed with information and brilliantly illustrated with color photographs, maps, plans, and 3-D drawings-all in just 48 pages.
The necropolises on the west bank of the Nile at Luxor contain some of the world's most stunning funerary art, and this small guide describes the best of it: the great royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings, the beautiful tomb of Nefertari in the Valley of the Queens, and the fascinating depictions of daily life in the Tombs of the Nobles.
