"I read this when I was about 12 and I had a sudden fascination with Ancient Egyptian civilisation (as for why that was, I really can't remember). I do remember that the book was excellent: it covers pretty much everything and has a variety of contributors."
"We used this book for Tapestry of Grace, Year 1. My children found it very dry and too detailed to be useful. But with my background in anthropology, I loved it. Although I didn't finish it, I'm glad I bought a copy. I'll read more as I have time."
