Reviews for The Egyptian World
Few books examine the broader topics of ancient Egyptian culture, but that is exactly what this impressive volume does...it should be a must-have and must-read volume for anyone studying ancient Egypt, for there are important subjects covered and explored here, that you will not find easily elsewhere.
