Internationally renowned Egyptologist Barbara Mertz transports
us back thousands of years and immerses us in the sights and sounds
of day-to-day life in a vanished desert culture.
Their civilization has inspired myriad films, books, pieces of
art, myths, and dreams, and they built grand monuments that still
stagger the imagination five thousand years later. But who were
these people? Mertz ushers us into their homes, workplaces,
temples, and palaces to give us an intimate view of the everyday
worlds of royals and commoners alike.
Displaying the unparalleled descriptive power, unerring eye for
detail, keen insight, and trenchant wit that have made the novels
she writes (as Elizabeth Peters and Barbara Michaels) perennial New
York Times best-sellers, Barbara Mertz brings a buried civilization
to vivid life, taking us closer than ever before to the people of a
great lost culture so different from--yet so surprisingly similar
to--our own.
