Pharaoh's Boat [SCM]

by David Weitzman Author

In the same fascinating style as David Macaulay, David Weitzman presents the step-by-step process the ancient Egyptians took to build a funeral boat for Pharaoh Cheops, and the puzzle modern archaeologists had to solve to restore and rebuild it. Ancient Egyptian-style art is used for the first half of the book, and modern-day drawings are used for the second half.
