This was a fascinating view of the life of Christiane Desroches-Noblecourt, and her work in Egyptology. When many others were focusing on “proper” rules of the day, Christiane defied convention and went after her dreams.
I enjoyed the book immensely, and for those who enjoy history - and Egyptian history, this is one book that will appeal to you!
