The Pharaohs is beautiful, fascinating, and an all-around amazing book!! I had some slight quibbles with little things, and the writing could be a bit dry sometimes, but it was overall wonderful.

It really transports you to across the ages to different dynasties and lets you see their gorgeous art and architecture. Loved it!
