Title: Akhenaten, Warmed Over
Review: This book is a disappointment on every possible score. The illustrations are almost all appallingly bad scans (amusingly, many of them are crooked!), and there is not one original insight in the text. It is also downright annoying to see "Inebhedj" for "Memphis" and "Waset" for "Thebes." These hypothetical phonetic reconstructions of toponyms serve no purpose except, I suppose, to demonstrate that the author has some nodding acquaintance with ancient Egyptian. Do yourself a favor and read Nicholas Reeves' "Akhenaten" instead!
