Lord Canarvon was the benefactor and ultimate employer of Howard Carter, the finder of the tomb of King Tutankhamun.
Kate Vigurs, History's Maid, portrays Lady Evelyn Herbert, Lord Carnarvon's only daughter who was the first woman to enter Tutankhamun's tomb.
As both Howard Carter's aide and an egyptologist in her own right Lady Evelyn is admirably placed to give both a 1920s and a modern viewpoint on the treasures that were uncovered from the boy-king's tomb.
