The Oxford History of Ancient Egypt (Paperback, Revised)

This comprehensive guide to the ancient Egyptians provides facts on every aspect of their civilization, starting in the Stone Age and following their architectural, cultural, artistic, political and religious development until their incorporation into the Roman Empire. Designed for readers with more than a passing interest in the subject, the incisive text is accompanied by maps, floorplans of buildings, sumptuous colour photographs of objects and reproductions of wall-paintings. A must for anyone wanting to learn more about this enigmatic people and their world and an excellent introduction and reference source for students of ancient history. (Kirkus UK)

The Oxford Illustrated History of Ancient Egypt describes the emergence and development of the distinctive civilization of the ancient Egyptians, from their prehistoric origins to their conquest by the Persians, Greeks, and Romans. It describes the changing nature of life and death in the Nile valley, including some of the earliest masterpieces of art, architecture, and literature in the ancient world.
