Ancient Egypt in 101 Questions and Answers
Ancient Egypt, with its pharaohs, pyramids, and mummies, never ceases to fascinate. Employing a question-and-answer format, this handy volume provides a wealth of information about ancient Egyptian history, society, religion, and more. For example, did ancient Egyptian women have equal rights? How was the Great Pyramid built? The answers, ranging in length from one to three pages, are engagingly and accessibly written and invite further research. With no index and few illustrations, this may have limited use as a reference work,  but it is highly recommended for the circulating shelves of most academic and public libraries. --Christopher McConnell
