Wow what a stunning book! The maps and illustrations were fantastic, alongside good descriptions of what was going on in Egypt? This is a fantastic resource for anyone at an elementary level of study of Ancient Egypt.

Well organized book with lots of maps and a few other graphics. Covers the history of political ancient Egypt and the pharaohs. A few other notes on cultural things or language. Unlike so many other books, it is very clear about the dates it is discussing. It does not lump together 3000 years of history.

The book covers prehistoric times through to about the 2nd to 3rd century BCE.
