Hidden Tombs of Memphis: New Discoveries from the Time of Tutankhamun and Ramesses the Great

Hidden Tombs of Memphis, written by Geoffrey Martin gives an overview of 15 years of

Hidden Tombs of Memphis

archeological digs and restorations in the Saqqara (Memphis necropolis) area. His descriptions are accessible and include enough background material on the age without it becoming a distraction. The book gives an excellent view of the work being done by modern archeologists, and often hints at the large amounts of research that go on outside of the field season.

I hope a future work will describe the work being done since this book was written.

Overall I love Hidden Tombs of Memphis, it is available new for $15.
