About This Item
This is an unread copy of Ancient Egypt, part of the Great Ages of Man series which Time-Life Books began publishing in the 60s. This book was written in 1965 by the American academic Lionel Casson (1914-2009); Time-Life's editors updated it and it was republished in 1978.
This book was well received. One review says it is "especially readable and fascinating with incredible illustrations and photographs of Ancient Egyptian major works of art. A very enjoyable read--I recommend it to anyone desiring to gain a better acquaintance with Ancient Egypt and its culture and history."
It's 8 3/4" x 10 3/4". 191 pages, including loads of photos.
There is an attractive bookplate on the inside front cover, which is already coming off on its own.
Pristine condition.
Note: Also listed here, I have three other books from this series: Ancient China, the Rise of Russia and Imperial Rome
Note: If you are outside of North America, the quoted shipping price is for surface mail without tracking. For other options, please contact me.
