Lords Of The Two Lands: Book One: Re Ascending Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Readers of fiction set in Ancient Egypt will know that there is quite a variety and range of offerings, from the simplistic (Christian Jacques)to the more consistently developed writing of someone like Pauline Gedge.

Decoding Egyptian Hieroglyphs: How to Read the Secret Language of the Pharaohs Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is not a book for beginners. It is too full of mistakes, contradictions and academic hubris to rely on. The copy editor of this work should be boiled in oil. For example - the glyph for lasso is called a brazier. Albeit, some of the phrases are of value and the pictures are first-rate.On page 127,...

The Scriptorium and Library at Monte Cassino, 1058-1105 (Cambridge Studies in Palaeography and Codicology) Review

The product of 35 years of study at Monte Cassino and in libraries...

The Jefferson Bible: The Life and Morals of Jesus Review

The Lore of the Whare-Wananga (Forgotten Books) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Tena tatou, an enjoyable and enlightening read for me. However, this book would be a difficult read without a some understanding of pre-European Maori culture, the native of New Zealand. A reasonable understanding of the Maori language would help the reader. The information is third hand: the author...

Mark (Pocket Canon) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Cox takes on an ambitious journey to write about his impressions of the Golden Triangle, Khun Sa and the opium trade.

I Promise Not To Tell Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I was lucky enough to get to read I Promise Not To Tell and have to say that not only is Ms. Weber an excellent poet but a fabulous storyteller.
