Expertly curated guide to British Museum treasures.

The British Museum Visitor's Guide is an excellent read for anyone planning a visit to the museum for the first time. The book contains five tours of major cultural and geographic areas as well as ten thematic tours that suggest less obvious ways of viewing some of the thousands of objects on display. Moreover, the book is fully illustrated with color, including specially designed maps and detailed directions for getting around the Museum. Finally, the flexible format makes it easy for any visitor to decide for themselves how long they wish to spend - from as little as an hour to as long as a day.

Description

There is no correct way to visit the British Museum, which is home to an astonishing range of cultures, periods and types of material - it's up to each visitor, their interests, and how much time and energy they have. This practical guidebook offers 5 tours of major cultural and geographic areas covered by the Museum, supplemented by 10 thematic tours suggesting less obvious ways of viewing some of the thousands of objects on display. The two major new galleries are featured - the award-winning Wellcome Trust Gallery of Living and Dying, and Discovering the World in the Eighteenth Century. Fully illustrated in colour, including specially designed maps and detailed directions for getting around the Museum, this is a perfect companion for first-time visitors who want to savour the highlights of the collection. The author also provides a variety of ideas for longer or repeat visits to pursue particular interests, and the book can be used to plan in advance. The flexible format makes it easy for any visitor to decide for themselves how long they wish to spend - from as little as an hour to as long as a day.
