  Taken from historical records, but told in lively, story-telling style, this book reveals the facts behind mummies all over the world! In Ancient Egypt, the men who made the mummies - the embalmers; Tutankhamun, the most famous mummy of all; in the Alps, the Iceman , a prehistoric hunter discovered in a glacier in 1991; Siberia - the excavation of the Princess ; bog bodies in Europe; and finally, a holy mummy - England's most famous saint, Cuthbert. The book ends with a light-hearted self-defence gide - including how to spot a mummy!
