Customer Reviews
the most beautiful and inspiring book on egyptian religion .
Ive read quite a lot of books relating to the egyptian book of the dead, and have even read the occasional translation.But "nothing" compares to this copy of Dr raymond Faulkner's translation of the book of "ANI". Anyone interested, obsessed ar simply wanting to learn more about this "Mother of civilisation", should go online now to amazon and buy a copy.For shear beauty of script, and visual splendor, this book is Candy for the mind. If you dont buy it, dont say i didnt warn you. (everest)
Interesting
I saw a tv program last year about the egyptian book of the dead and at the end of the program it showed this book.It contains nice colourful prints of the scroll with the written verses underneath.
Good interesting book.
