Rosalind Moss (1890-1990) was one of the most remarkable
figures in Egyptology in this
century. Between 1924 and 1972 she edited the
Topographical Bibliography of
Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphic Texts, Reliefs and
Paintings. Her work exerted
profound influence on research techniques in Egyptology. This
volume contains
reminiscences by twenty friends and colleagues and presents a
vivid and absorbing picture
of Egyptological community during the period of the great
expansion of the subject
between 1920 and 1970.
