Very Informative

Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2006

This book covers not only the most visited sites such as Karnak and the Valley of the Kings but also some of the more remote areas such as Siwa and the Fayoum.

A good reference guide and enjoyable read. With some lovely color photographs.

Good read and valuable reference book

Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2004

The book takes the reader on an informative journey through the sites and buildings of Egypt, from the time of the first dynasty. It is well served with an introduction, a chronology, geographic description and a map.
A major part of the book is dedicated to the temples and temple architecture of Luxor, Satet, Karnak, Abydos, mortuary temples, the temples of Hathor, Dendera, Hatshepsut and the Ramesseum. Nubian temples like those of Abu Simbel, Wadi es-Sebua and Amada are also covered.
Alexandria, Tanis and the rest of the Delta are also discussed. What makes the book really interesting is its coverage of the remote oases like Siwa, Kharga, Dakhla and Farafra, as well as the Fayoum.
Although directed at the general reader, the work is quite encyclopaedic in scope, making it an ideal reference guide. With its 200 full color photographs and helpful index, it is an enjoyable read.

Very helpful to me in going through my own pictures. To confirm names of famous places and what is important.
