This review is from: Moses: Pharoah of Egypt : The Mystery of Akhenaten Resolved (Paperback)
Anyone with an interest in the enigma of the Pharaoh of the sun will at the very least find this book stimulating. The book deals with a personality who radically changed a religious tradition which still fascinates today. The attempted obliteration of all traces of Akhenaten and his monotheism has caused considerable consternation among all those interested in ancient egypt and undoubtedly will continue to do so. In this work Osman presents a well argued and convincing theory ( I'm fairly convinced at least )written in a style accessible to everybody, not only to the specialised reader. However, the radical view here presented that Akhenaten nad Moses are in fact one and the same person, does demand an open mind and a temporary suspension of the religious assumptions most of us have learnt from an early age. In my opinion this book is definately worth the effort to find and read it.
