“In the Land of the Pharaohs” - a book by the famous French writer, author of world bestsellers “The Murdered Pyramid”, “The Case of Tutankhamun”, etc., Sorbonne professor Christian Jacques, is written so colorfully that it can be recommended for reading not only to travelers, but also lovers of exciting adventure novels.

An excellent writer, an expert on Egyptian culture and history, Christian Jacques knows how to interest the reader from the very beginning of the story: Ancient Egypt comes to life on the pages of the book, palace coups take place, pharaohs rule and their retinue lives in luxury. And numerous diagrams, maps and plans make the guide visual and easy to use.

The Guide to Egypt by Christian Jacques rightfully ranks with the works of such well-known scientific writers as Thor Heyerdahl, Jacques-Yves Cousteau and Gerald Durrell.
