A review by kaillem
The Mummy Congress: Science, Obsession, and the Everlasting Dead by Heather Pringle

5.0

Heather Pringle writes quite well and covers a variety of mummies in this book--not just Egyptian mummies, which seems to be what most mummy books are about. I definitely recommend this for anyone who wants to get a broad sense of a lot of different mummy types. If you want to get into some intense detail, though, you probably need to jump into the academic literature.
