Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. First Printing. 80 Pages. Covers have minor edge wear. The fabulous treasures of Tutankhamun's tomb have been seen by millions of people. They will be seen by millions more. In the crush of exhibition crowds, however, the average viewer has little chance to learn about the people and way of life that produced such masterpieces. Cyril Aldred, one of the greatest living scholars of ancient Egypt, has written a compact and compelling introduction to this exotic society. He describes the lives of the Egyptians, their Pharaoh (who was both god and supreme warrior to them), and his court -- the priests, scribes, and soldiers who maintained his rule; the scientists, artists, and architects whose pyramids and tombs were raised and decorated in his name. Using illustrations from many sources -- wall paintings, reliefs and sculpture, furnishings, papyrus, and the monuments themselves Aldred vividly evokes the life of ancient Egypt. He shows the Egyptians at work, at war, at worship of their gods and rulers, and after death. Egypt endured for almost 3,000 years. No other state in human history has lasted so long and remained so mighty. Its legacy is priceless, and this book makes that mysterious and remote culture accessible to modem readers. Contents in Ten Chapters: The People, The Divine King, The Pharaoh as Hero, Officials of the King, Scribes, Soldiers of the Pharaoh, Artists and Artisans, Scientists and Technologists, Man and the Gods, and Death and Burial. Plus Introduction and Chronology.

The story of the Indian wars on the Great plains with the Plains Indians During the Winning of the West as told by a foremost writer on military affairs.
