The perenially fascinating Egyptian pyramids introduced by a world expert. 'A fascinating and comprehensive book... The Pyramids is a portrait, not only of the pyramids themselves, but of an entire civilization, the first in history to build in stone, and thereby aim for eternity... Exceedingly welcome and timely' Literary Review
How did a people who lived nearly five thousand years ago, who knew neither iron nor bronze and who lacked mastery of elementary rules of calculation, manage to construct enormous stone structures with a precision seldom matched even by modern architecture? By one of the world''s leading Egyptologists, The Pyramids sets our knowledge of these unique, haunting and perennially fascinating edifices into the context of ancient Egyptian culture and politics.
