This 1915 work describes Thompson's life 'in the field' at various sites in Egypt, the Sudan and western Asia. The difficulties and dangers of travel, the encounters with local people, the management of an excavation, and the fascinating 'trade of archaeology' are all described with enthusiasm and in melodramatic terms.
