If you only read one book on ancient Egypt, I suggest it be Imagining Egypt, written and illustrated by Mark Millmore.  It's entertainingly informative.  Nancy

Cleopatra bio

Nefetiti bio

Route 66 A.D. is part bizarre contemporary travel diary, part ancient guidebook and part mostly accurate history. 

(Tony, Nero was not married to Messalina.  She was the wife of Emperor Claudius.) 

Author Tony Perrottet credits the Romans with inventing the travel industry.  He and his pregnant girlfriend retraced the Grand Tour of the eastern Mediterranean that has been popular for 2000 years - give or take a war or two - with entertaining and enlightening results.

So know before you go: pick up a copy of the book before you next head for Rome and parts east.  Nancy

If a book you're looking for is out of print, click on any link to Amazon Books Home Page, Amazon.ca, Amazon.co.uk, or Alibris to find out if it is available as a used book.

Mini Book Review List

 

Dare to go Bear

 

 

Some books simply scream for a TV or movie treatment.  I don't think like a producer (today no, tomorrow perhaps), so when I stumbled on the website where people post their choices for actors to play Amelia Peabody and entourage, I thought, "Yeah." 

I haven't heard of any scripts in the works since that time, but Amelia Island's fans are legion and the books in the series are a pleasure. 

Amelia and company are Egyptologists working in the days BEFORE King Tut's tomb was discovered.  The author, Elizabeth Peters, who uses pen names like Barbara Michaels for her more romance oriented mysteries, has a Ph.D. in Egyptology so she knows her stuff.  

When you combine great characters, absorbing stories and adventure, you can understand why I suggest that you shouldn't  wait for Amelia Island to come to a theater near you.  Start with Crocodile on the Sandbank Nancy
