The Ancient Egyptians For Dummies” /> Thats’ for me!!
I’ve bought loads of the “Dummies” books. Mostly to learn how to do various things on my pc. They’re great value and have really taught me so much.
So I was intrigued to see this title, “The Ancient Egyptians For Dummies“. I wasnt’ sure what I’d make of it. But I’d highly recommend it as a great read before you take your Nile Cruise and a great companion to take with you.
It follows the standard “Dummies” approach with over three hundred and fifty pages which provide a wealth of information. It’s a book you can dip in and out of, and, as you journey down the Nile, you can come back to the ship and read up on what you’ve just seen.
The chapters cover the geography and a broad and full history of ancient Egypt, royal women, food and entertainment, disease and medicine, religion, mumification, art and hieroglyphics, temples and tombs.
There is a mass of information and the book is well written and easy to read. It’s available in good bookshops or can be ordered online at Amazon.
I would really recommend it as a “one-stop” introduction to Ancient Egypt and I’m sure it will make your Nile Cruise even more informative and enjoyable.
