Small spot top front board, otherwise only slight wear to book and dustjacket ; A bright, solid book, dustjacket in Mylar, unclipped. B&W and color plates; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 384 pages; "The Mummy Congress takes us on a journey over five continents and back nearly 7,000 years. Pringle tells how mummies have been venerated as saints, fought over by politicians, collected as artistic treasures and investigated for clues to ancient civilization's drug use. In these pages lie child mummies of northern Chile, preserved household pets of ancient Egypt and the new crop of mummification services being hyped on the internet. "
