| Description | Long before the development of scientific archaeology, Egypt was familiar to Europe. Between Denon and Carter, another significant figure in the developing study of Egypt, Amelia B. She was herself a successful author, and her book A Thousand Miles up the Nile began a lifelong engagement with promoting Egyptological studies. The University of Edinburgh Library lists 285 items as 'Egypt Antiquities'. The publication of Description was an act of state, and on a scale worthy of the Napoleonic Empire. The numerous images in Howard Carter's description of the tomb of Tutankhamun were grouped. The archaeologists were essentially right. The first, popular, extends from the pyramidologists at one end to Romer-style books at the other. Rice's presenter is a much amplified version of the old-style cicerone. Ancient Egypt is unique in one special sense. To secure the future of publishing Ancient Egypt, now is the time to plan ahead. Book Name: Consuming Ancient Egypt |
