An excellent book for people who are fascinated by ancient Egypt. It is written in a more accessible language but not dumbed down. The book is sufficiently technical while balancing understandability so that a reasonably intelligent enthusiast of the material will find it quite enjoyable. I've got mine. If Ancient Egypt turns your crank get in line for a copy you will not be sorry. I recommend it to all who love this subject.
