I find this series of immense interest to an armchair traveller. How the publishers manage to pack so much information into a book easily slipped into a pocket never fails to amaze me. Of course I knew that Egypt was mentioned in the Bible, but must confess to being ignorant of many of the facts herein. Clive and Amanda Anderson clearly love Egypt and have a wide knowledge of all things Egyptian. With beautiful photography and clear maps and diagrams, they tell of its geography and climate, its history and relevance in the Bible. At the end of each section is travel information for those who are actual travellers, websites for detailed advice, even opening times of the various museums to help you plan your itinerary. The photograph of Princess Diana’s Factory for Alabaster caught my eye and sent me to Google. It appears that places are named to attract tourists! If you read through this book, it won’t be the only item that whets your appetite for more information.
