Title: seriously overpriced
Product review: Toby Wilkinson, a well-respected young British Egyptologist, has gathered together all known published information about the Palermo Stone and 6 other associated fragments and added a little of his own. The resulting text is spread thinly over some 300 pages including 12 line-drawings.I was disappointed that such an expensive volume did not even have any photographs of the objects being described. At 20 this book would be reasonable value but at 150 it is an unnecessary extravagance. I'm glad that I borrowed a copy from the British Library rather than buying it.In contrast, Toby Wilkinson's "Early Dynastic Egypt" is a valuable and not outrageously priced work that should be on the shelves of every Egyptologist with interests in that period.
