Reviews for Moses and Akhenaten: The Secret History of Egypt at the Time of the Exodus
"The classic work which redefines the timeframe of the Exodus and places it firmly in the age of Akhenaten and Tutankhamun. Essential reading for all Bible historians."
Andrew Collins, author of From the Ashes of Angels and Gateway to Atlantis
"His study makes for an interesting alternative perspective."
