Daniel Gordon Collection
註釋Collection consists of one bound copy of Daniel Gordon's essay which he completed to meet the requirements of the M.L.A. degree awarded from The Johns Hopkins University, 1991. The essay is entitled "The Robber Baron Archaeologist." Gordon's essay is a well-researched and documented life of the financier and Egyptologist, Theodore M. Davis (1838-1915). The early life, business dealings, and personal life of Davis are described as well as the many expeditions he financed and arranged to the Valley of the Kings, Egypt, 1903-1909. Antiquities, paintings, and other art objects collected by Davis and his team of archaeologists later formed part of the Egyptian holdings of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
