Another good installment in the bedtime reading genre.
A heavy dose of Egyptian history, with a description of ancient sites. The book primarily covers the area of Nubia (now under Lake Nasser) and Thebes/Luxor. The commentary on the sites struck me as a bit odd until I realized the book is meant to be a tour guide, as well. There is a lot of - “And on your left, you will see a relief of Ramses II on his chariot in battle.”
