BOOKS ABOUT EGYPTIAN MUMMIES

The Complete Royal Families of Ancient Egypt

by Aidan Dodson and Dyan Hilton

 

The Complete Royal Families of Ancient Egypt by Aidan Dodson and Dyan Hilton intends "to fill the gap" in the presentation of information about the royal families. Dodson, the author of many excellent books on ancient Egypt, and his wife have teamed to present as thorough information as you might find on the subject, including family trees and brief biographical accounts of each royal.

In all, 27 quite detailed family trees are presented along with short biographies. The book is divided into five sections. Within each section, each dynasty or period is treated separately with a historical overview and a summary of the royal family during the time period. This is followed by the biographical section.

Throughout, the book is illustrated with 300 photographs and drawings, some 90 in full color.

An attractive reference book, perfect for researchers looking for an easy reference book about ancient Egyptian royalty.
