New. 0892367962. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request ***-*** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-Flawless copy, brand new, pristine, never opened--352 pages; 26 color and 158 b/w illustrations. Description: "The thousand years of Egyptian history from the conquest of Alexander the Great in 332 B. C. To the Arab conquest in A. D. 641 are rich in archaeological evidence and well documented by 50, 000 papyri in Greek, Egyptian, Latin, and other languages. However, travelers and others interested in the remains of this period are ill-served by most guides to Egypt, which concentrate on the pharaonic buildings. The dozen leading experts who have contributed to this volume redress the imbalance with clear and concise presentations of the history and the documentary evidence from the Hellenistic, Roman, and late antique periods, enabling the reader to appreciate the fascinating cities, temples, churches, and tombs from these later periods. With specially commissioned plans of sites and buildings and room-by-room tours of museums, this book is both a tourist's companion to the principal sites and an armchair guide to the splendors of a little-known and culturally diverse civilization."--with a bonus offer--
