Customer Reviews

Fabulous Supersized Egypt

The physical size of this work is impressive, and the photographs spectacular. Some of the special affects on the photos will delight the most seasoned enthusiast. Commentary not too technical, for broader audience. Espcially like the slip-cover box, looks great on display. Definitely recommend for lovers of Egyptian antiquities.

Gorgeous Photographs, and good information

This is a HUGE coffee table book but has great photographs and also a lot of first rate information. The author is Zahi Hawass, you see his name on a lot of current Egyptian books because he is the head of Egyptian antiquities, all tomb openings, all artifacts, all exhibits that leave Egypt, go through him. If you can find this book used, reasonably, it is worth having.
