From the Publisher
Blackwell Publishers
This is a unique account of the Egyptians from the foundations of their ancient empire to their present-day status as a bridge between the Arab world and the West. Egypt has the longest continuous known history of any country in the world. The Nile Valley was first settled around 5000 BC, and descendants of those early Egyptians still live along the banks of the great river that gave life to the desert lands and helped to bring about one of the earliest and greatest civilizations. Barbara Watterson gives an accont of the political and social history of the Egyptians through the millennia in a narrative interwoven with insights into their economy and culture. Throughout the book she stresses the themes of continuity and change, providing the first comprehensive panorama of this fascinating people and their society.
