A Short History of Egypt
 
Egypt, enclosed as it is within desert borders and reliant on the river Nile, is in many ways unique, and its geographical isolation has presented a great opportunity for the country to develop along its own lines without outside influence. A Short History of Egypt introduces the reader to different aspects of Egyptian history, and describes the everyday life and religion of its people.
