Editorial Reviews

Review

“This Historywill probably be most valuable to readers new to the subject or to non-specialists interested in aspects of Egyptian culture and in need of historical context.” (Antiquity, 1 January 2013)

Review

“Professor Van de Mieroop, an eminent scholar, continues his work of making ancient history accessible to all readers. Impeccably researched and with a clear narrative that flows well, the book is as imaginative as it is erudite. It will be invaluable to specialists and non-specialists alike, and will be especially useful to teachers. Highly recommended.”
Ronald J. Leprohon, University of Toronto

“In his wide-ranging and up-to-date A History of Ancient Egypt Marc Van De Mieroop offers the fullest treatment of his subject in many years, using a true historian’s eye to study the development of Egyptian society from the late fourth millennium BCE to Graeco-Roman times.”
John Baines, University of Oxford
