The Man in the White Sharkskin Suit: My Family's Exodus from Old Cairo to the New World
from Ecco
Price: $17.13

Customer Review:

This is one of the best books I have ever read! There are too few stories about Sephardic Jews from the Middle East. I had no idea about Cairo being so cosmopolitan in the 1920s to 1940s. As an Ashkenazi Jew the Jewish stories I'm familiar with are mostly of Jews from Europe and Russia. This is... more info

The Code Book: The Science of Secrecy from Ancient Egypt to Quantum Cryptography
from Anchor
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:

Simon Singh books usually hold you from the first page and till the end. "The code book" is very well written and very informative. You will see how it's started and where cryptography goes, but even more interesting part of history of cryptography - life (sometimes secret life) of people who worked... more info

Discovering the Mysteries of Ancient America: Lost History And Legends, Unearthed And Explored
from New Page Books
Price: $10.87

Customer Review:

This is a fairly decent book in some ways and one to take with a big laugh in others. I've certainly read worse though. Most of it is review for me since I've read most of the authors mentioned here in more detail and most of the information was not new to me. Overall the feel for the book is rather... more info

Out of Egypt: A Memoir
from Picador
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:

I read these memoirs with strict concentration on all features of the environment that provided the interesting material to this book.
From childhood of elderly relatives that was somewhat unhappy and bordering on deprivation, the family living off charity, in areas where the primary social... more info

The African Origin of Civilization: Myth or Reality
from Lawrence Hill Books
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:

Don't let the title fool you. Especially if you already believe that Euro-centric history is missing a bit of "World History" or tweaked it so much that others in the world don't seem to exist as they should. If you have read Euro-centric World History, then this book will begin to prepare you to... more info

Before the Pharaohs: Egypt's Mysterious Prehistory
from Bear & Company
Price: $12.24

Customer Review:

How old is the Sphinx? What was the Great Pyramid designed to be? I have never heard of Nabta Playa, but why would an astrophysicist claim that its megaliths were designed as a star map depicting the movements of the constellation Orion? And, over a 10,000 year period! These questions and more are... more info

Temples, Tombs, and Hieroglyphs: A Popular History of Ancient Egypt
from William Morrow
Price: $17.79

Customer Review:

A few years ago I visited these areas and the tour guide spoke with great certainty about everything. Come to find out almost everything is subject to question. Mertz is clear on what has been established, and what is theory. The time, energy and research put into Egyptian archeaology opens new... more info

The Giza Power Plant : Technologies of Ancient Egypt
from Bear & Company
Price: $12.24

Customer Review:

I have been researching the Great Pyramid for almost 40 years. I spent two trips there myself to try to figure out what it was all about, and came away wise enough to say, "I don't know." I didn't agree with any of the existing theories. All of them had holes in them - usually big enough to drive a... more info
