Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An entertaining and informative romp, from the joys of imported beer to the horror of invasion . . . demonstrates the extent of Egyptian foreign affairs.”—Ancient Egypt Magazine The ancient Egyptians presented themselves as superior to all other people in the world; on temple walls, the pharaoh is shown smiting foreign enemies—people from Nubia, Libya and the Levant or crushing them beneath his chariot. But despite such imagery, from the beginning of their history, the Egyptians also enjoyed friendly relations with neighboring cultures; both Egyptians and foreigners crossed the deserts and seas exchanging goods gathered from across the known world. War & Trade with the Pharaohs explores Egypt’s connections with the wider world over the course of 3,000 years, introducing readers to ancient diplomacy, travel, trade, warfare, domination, and immigration—both Egyptians living abroad and foreigners living in Egypt. It covers military campaigns and trade in periods of strength—including such important events as the Battle of Qadesh under Ramesses II and Hatshepsut’s trading mission to the mysterious land of Punt—and Egypt’s foreign relations during times of political weakness, when foreign dynasties ruled parts of the country. From early interactions with traders on desolate desert tracks, to sunken Mediterranean trading vessels, the Nubian Kingdom of Kerma, Nile fortresses, the Sea Peoples, and Persian satraps, there is always a rich story to tell behind Egypt’s foreign relations. “Garry Shaw’s book is something of a revelation, a different way of looking at what we know about the Ancient Egyptians and their amazing culture.”—Books Monthly “As inherently fascinating a read as it is exceptionally well researched, written, organized and presented.”—Midwest Book Review

(Right After Conclusion) - Get limited time offer, Get your BONUS right NOW! Have you heard of Queen Cleopatra and wondered about her? Do you know about the pyramids but not how they came about? Would you like to know more about ancient Egyptian Gods and Goddesses? Do you want to know more about mighty Pharaohs? If you can say "yes" to even one of these questions, then Ancient Egypt is the book for you. In this book, you will learn about the most famous people and incidents in Ancient Egypt. Ancient Egypt has its origins all the way from 5300 BC. Over several millennia, there have been a significant number of innovations that have placed Ancient Egypt above some of the other ancient civilizations. This can clearly be seen today, where modern people can still experience the influence of ancient Egypt through clothing, hieroglyphics and architectural wonders including the pyramids and temples found in the country. In this book, you will learn about the history of Ancient Egypt, looking as far back as Egypt's Pre-dynastic Period. This will help you to understand the changes that occurred in Egypt, and also to identify when things were being improved or constructed. You will also gain some insight on the main gods and goddesses that were worshiped by the Egyptian people, including the reasons why they were being worshiped. The ancient Egyptians had over 2000 gods and goddesses, each one filling in a specialized role. This includes gods for rain and the sunshine, planting and harvest and creation as well. The gods that have been featured in this book include Ram, who is also known as the Sun God, Amun, who is known as the god responsible for creation, Isis, the goddess of fertility who is married to Osiris, the god of death, and Hathor, the goddess of love. Egyptian Pharaohs are also famous for their power, and accomplishments that forever changed the landscape of Egypt. Almost every Egyptian Pharaoh commissioned the construction of a pyramid. Many of these pyramids were constructed upwards of two thousand years ago though they are still standing to this day. Besides the mighty Pharaohs were some magnificently beautiful queens. However, these queens were more than ceremonial figureheads. Even with all their beauty, they were able to come up with solutions for the people, as their beauty was matched with intelligence, reasoning power, and thoughtfulness. The story of the most well-known queen, Cleopatra, is included in this book. In addition, Queen Nefertiti (who is commonly depicted on busts) is also discussed in this book. This book also has specifics on the different types of pyramids. These details include the time periods in which they were built, as well as the size of the pyramid. Pyramids were built as tombs, particularly for members of the royal family. For that reason, pyramids often have chambers where different members of the family can be buried. Ancient Egypt is a book that promises to be entertaining and information, offering you an excellent insight into this civilization. ***Limited Edition*** Download your copy today!
