Excellent source for Egyptian and Mesopotamian History, June 18, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Archaeological History of the Ancient Middle East (Hardcover)
Jack Finegan's book "Archaeological History of the Ancient Middle East" is a wonderful classic. His book is separated into two parts. The first being an examination of Mesopotamia from the beginning of the Mesolithic to the end of the Persian empire. He covers in detail significant historical events within that time period of Mesopotamia. The Second part of his book deals with Egypt from the Mesolithic era to the fall of the Late Dynastic period at the coming of Alexander the Great. The book is beautifully pieced together with hundreds of photographs, tables, and maps from all the periods discussed. I highly recommend Finegan's book for anyone interested in Mesopotamian and Eygptian history. A must for any collection
