Sinopsis
Fine cloth copy in an equally fine dw, now mylar-sleeved. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered.; 337 pages; Description: xii, 337 p., 8 p. of plates : ill. (chiefly col.), maps, ports. ; 24 cm. Includes index. Subjects: Cheops, King of Egypt --Great Pyramid (Egypt) --Pharaohs --Biography --Pyramids --Antiquities. Summary: Four and a half thousand years ago, the largest of the wonders of the ancient world was built. The Great Pyramid at Giza has fascinated and intrigued scholars ever since and it is the only one of the wonders listed by the Greeks to have survived intact to this day. By the time Tutankhamen ruled Egypt it was already 1500 years old; to Cleopatra it was an antiquity. But how was it built? Why and by whom? The Great Pyramid, thought to be evidence of a slave-culture on a truly despotic scale, has fascinated travellers and archaelogists since the 19th-century revival of interest in antiquities. And with it a fascination with the pharoah who built it: Cheops. This book takes a look at the man behind the monument - the life and times of Cheops, the greatest pyramid-builder of them all.

Críticas
El Mahdy is something of a Egyptological vigilante and takes pleasure in debunking misconceptions. Clearly on fertile ground here, she starts by confessing that "it is hard to understand any of it [Egytology]", then fills several hundred pages with understanding - Sunday Times
