Z liked the initial chapter about the engineering of pyramids but then it got too basic in terms of description . . . didn't hold his interest to continue. ( )

This is a great book about ancient Egyptians. It is not only a good science book but it talks about Egyptians contributions to math and other subjects as well. ( )
