Extremely Readable AND Resourceful - By: , 07 Jun 1999 
1)The main thing is that not only are translations matched with vignettes (pictures of the actual pages), but the text is not British English.... it is Americanized...... This makes it very easy to understand. 2)An interesting point to the translations is that, if you know anything about the actual vignettes, the translations of not just the black text, but the red text, is well defined. 3)Helps to understand the ancient Egyptian culture & gets rid of some myths about their actual religious structure, which was less an adoration than to make the gods serve someone that proclaimed themselves worthy.

Saw "The Mummy", had to have the book! - By: , 23 May 1999 
I don't know how to describe it. It was like reliving "The Mummy" I felt special being able to read this book. I am trying to learn Egyptian language & hieroglyphics, so I can go to Egypt & read some of the words on the sarcougagusess, or however you spell it.
