The mystery and history of Ancient Egypt has intrigued explorers, travellers and armchair enthusiasts for millennia. Now, in this concise and easy-to-read guide, bestselling author Simon Cox will answer questions and put the record straight in a compact and attractive volume, the first in his new "A to Z" series.

With the travelling Tutankhamun exhibition set to bring Egyptomania to the United States and Europe over the coming year, this easily accessible reference aid will be an essential guide to all things Egyptian.
