Publisher Description: Egypt is a living museum of the ancient world. Pyramids lie amidst modern farming villages, and construction crews renovate and restore crumbling old city architecture. This work examines the ancient and modern cultural history of Egypt. It also looks at the environmental impact of Egypt's growing population and how pollution effects the pyramids. |
