James takes the reader back to the sites from which the wealth of objects yielded by ancient Egypt and now admired in museum all over the world came from. He follows the Nile from the Delta to Nubia, via the great monuments of Memphis, Abydos and Thebes and shows why these places were to provide such superb evidence of the Egyptian achievement. His evocative text and the numerous illustrations illuminate the real significance of Egypt's legacy making a visit to the Egyptian galleries of a museum, or a journey to Egypt itself a much more rewarding experience.
