The New York Times bestselling author Sam Kean offers a sensory-packed dive into human history with Dinner with King Tut: How Rogue Archaeologists Are Re-creating the Sights, Sounds, Smells, and Tastes of Lost Civilizations. From the tang of Roman fish sauce and Egyptian sourdough to the clash of Viking swords and the frenzy of an Aztec ballgame, Kean’s experimental adventures—firing medieval catapults, building ancient boats, even mummifying salmon—bring the past vividly to life.
