Hewn more than three thousand years ago out of the sandstone cliffs on the left bank of the Nile, these imposing rock temples still evoke all the glories of a vanished civilization. Yet today, because of man's desperate drive for progress, they are threatened with destruction· and their majestic setting will be irretrievably lost. Despite the passage of millennia, the treasures of Abu Simbel provide breathtaking evidence of the Egyptian genius in architecture and the arts. The colossi of Ramses the Great, the vast series of halls decorated with colored sculptures depicting the deeds of Ramses and his lovely Queen Nefertary which flow around the walls and pillars in a surging river of action~all of these ancient marvels are recorded in these glowing pages. In telling the story of Abu Simbel~from its earliest days to the dark years when the program to construct the Aswan High Dam has threatened to inundate these splendors forever~William MacQuitty re~creates the fascinating history and religion of these astonishing people. Their love of life and deep~seated horror of death were more pronounced than that of any other race. This is made clear as the author takes us into the gaily painted tomb of Nefertary and the despoiled tomb of her husband, both opened specially after two decades to enable photographs to he taken, and also as we observe the mummy of Ramses, still as well preserved as the day the embalmers wrapped it in linen more than three thousand years ago. The ancient Egyptians said: ''To speak of the dead is to make them live again.'' And this superb record does just that. For the book ends with the Egypt of today, the modern magnificence of the High Dam, the moving spectacle of the deserted Nubian villages with the rising waters already lapping at their doors, and finally there is a discussion of the bold plans submitted to Unesco to preserve the treasure of Abu Simbel for posterity. The unique and dazzling photographs in this book~ forty~eight in full color and eighty~eight in monochrome~not only bring to life the story of one of the world's oldest and most impressive monuments, but also dramatize the story of the struggle to save it from total destruction. As a permanent record of unsurpassed artistic achievement which will never again be duplicated, this remarkable book will be cherished by every reader who is concerned with artistic beauty and the ancient patterns of civilization which are the heritage of all mankind.…
