Not quite a book, but had this recommended to me today, and felt obliged to immediately watch it.
Its somewhat dramatic, but Zahi Hawass is an excellent protagonist.
I always enjoy seeing modern Egyptians labouring in the same way as their ancestors once did - it warms my heart. Seeing them work to restore the glories of the past, dangerous as it might be, their work is commendable.

. Worth watching!
I spent one week in a friend’s home ( housesitting while they’re in holidays) and they have Netflix. So I could watch all those wonderful documentary reports….especially about Kemet
