The Pyramids and the Sphinx (Egyptian Treasures S.)

"This book is dedicated to the Great Sphinx and the Pyramids of Giza, the emblems and glory of the Fourth Dynasty, but also to the pyramids and tombs that stretch from Saqqarah to Meidum and Dashur. In the light of most recent findings and thanks to all-new photographs and plans, the reader is led on a discovery of the most fascinating face of the Nilotic civilization. Tribute is also paid to the pharaohs who ordered the pyramids' construction, the treasures found in the most famous tombs, and the men who have revealed their secrets. The result is a volume with an outstanding series of photographs and illustrations combined with a completely up-to-date text in clear English."--Jacket.
