The desert is my world, and ancient Egypt is were I belong.,
This review is from: Champollion the Egyptian (Paperback)
Champollion the decipher of the hieroglyphics.An extraordinary man, obsessed with the History of the Pharaohs.This book tells all the struggles that he had to go through to find the archeological sites that will help finalize his discovery.His trepidations, and life threatening situations,were enemies were waiting to murder him.
The experience that he had with his team,and going up the Nile in search of all the old temples.It seemed like he was born again. The details of the life of Bedouins,leaders of tribes in the countryside.The struggle to work with Turkish leaders,and French.His failures,and his successes,all intertwined for the love of Egypt.If he succeeded he was resented, if he failed he was a failure to French and the entire archeological world.Nevertheless he succeeded,and how.Very easy to read and not heavy at all.The Pharaohs were his companions,and the desert was his home.
