Sinopsis

The Life of Margaret Alice Murray: A Woman&rsquo,s Work in Archaeology, by Kathleen L. Sheppard, is a scientific biography of Margaret Alice Murray (1863-1963), exploring all the facets of &ldquo,women&rsquo,s work&rdquo, in the history of archaeology and academia in the first half of the 20th century. This is not another &ldquo,Great Woman&rdquo, in place of a &ldquo,Great Man&rdquo, biography, but is instead the unlikely story of the first professional female Egyptologist in Britain who has so far been largely ignored by historians.
