Three Quick Read stories by Richard Brown, set in different periods of
ancient Egypt, capture the culture of that ancient civilization and some
of its mystery. Skillfully woven in details of everyday life in ancient
Egypt include the rulers, religion, art, the building of the pyramids
and the enduring importance of the Nile River. Historical notes at the
end of each story set the scene and there is also a glossary to explain
any unfamiliar words.
