About the Item
The American Discovery of Ancient Egypt 1995.
Essays, edited by Nancy Thomas.
A survey of the achievements of American Egyptology featuring such enterprising US archaeologists as George Reisner, James Henry Breasted and Herbert Winlock, whose expeditions enriched the Egyptian collections of prominent museums and universities in Chicago, Philadelpia, Boston, Berkeley and New York.
Los Angeles County Museum of Art, 1995 - Art - 275 pages
From Publishers Weekly:
European Egyptologists Jean-Fran ois Champollion and Howard Carter are famed, but what of the Americans George Reisner, James Henry Breasted and Herbert Winlock? The American Discovery of Ancient Egypt by Nancy Thomas, a curator at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, retrieves them from near-obscurity in essays by Gerry D. Scott III and Bruce G. Trigger and 227 illustrations (70 in color) of objects excavated by Americans and displayed in the extensive collections of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and other U.S.
