Summary:

"Howard dreamed of discovering a mummy, ... especially a royal mummy in its tomb, complete with all its treasures. When he was seventeen, he took a job with the Egypt Exploration Fund and was sent to Egypt to learn about archaeology and excavation sites. And his mummy hunt was on. Howard discovered many amazing artifacts, but he searched for years before coming upon the most famous mummy of all, King Tut"--Dust jacket flap.
