The Egyptian Book of the Dead: The Book of Going Forth By Day

This reissue of The Egyptian Book of the Dead, a perennial favorite, features a newly designed cover. Inside, the legendary 3,500-year-old Papyrus of Ani—the most beautiful of the ornately illustrated Egyptian funerary scrolls ever discovered—is restored in its original sequences of text and artwork. Four exquisitely illustrated gatefold spreads and an acclaimed translation by two noted Egyptologists showcase the Papyrus’s elaborately bordered images and convey its intended sense of motion and meaning.
