About this product
Product Information
* In the vein of the Prothero titles, which have sold well. * Well-researched book which traces the origins of popular myths surrounding the pyramids. * It examines Egypt from the point of view of pop culture and myth rather than academic history. * It is one of the first books to fully explore the influence of medieval Islam on modern myths of Egypt. * It connects stories from Classical Antiquity down to modern movies to show they are part of a continuous whole. * It includes discussion and translation of rare ancient and medieval texts almost never discussed in the West.

Item was delivered as advertised however it was not delivered in a box which allowed it to receive some minor damage. Book was in 2 very durable form fitted vinyl/plastic bags which would have been great had then been placed in a box to protect it. Seller was very easy to discuss issue with and the damage is slight. I would buy again from this seller.

Not standard size, used; priced like new standard size. Seller refused to pay return shipping for not-standard item, not noted in listing. I learned not to buy a book without a listed size; could be anything.
