Egypt
Review: Hawass - Mountains of the Pharaohs
http://weekly.ahram.org.eg/2007/830/he2.htm
Jill Kamel reviews the latest offering from Zahi Hawass, including a lengthy chapter-by-chapter overview and a discussion of the style and approach used: "ahi Hawass, a larger-than-life character who stands at the helm of the Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA), has authored and co-authored several hefty publications on various aspects of ancient Egypt. Mountains of the Pharaohs is different -- not only because it is a conventionally sized book, a mere 24 x 16cms and only half a kilogramme in weight -- but also because it is written in narrative form and geared to the general public. Hawass has used a literary device to grasp the attention of an unprofessional audience. He has begun each chapter with an engaging imaginary scene written in italics."
