Fascinating Ancient Egypt

The book by the German writer and educator Karl Oppel (1816-1903) on the history of Ancient Egypt was no less popular among schoolchildren than the legendary "Myths of Ancient Greece" by Nikolai Kun.
You will be transported back 3000 years, to the height of Egyptian civilization, see the grand pyramids in their pristine beauty, visit the court of famous pharaohs, sail along the sacred Nile, visit palaces, temples, oases, and get acquainted with the life of ordinary Egyptians, priests, and rulers. And, of course, you will enjoy an amazing tour of the world of Egyptian mythology.
For our edition, the legendary book by Oppel has been reedited: all the information in it has been supplemented and corrected in accordance with modern Egyptology data.
And the new full-color illustrations, which include reproductions of masterpieces of Egyptian art, photographs of exhibits from historical museums, and the best examples of world painting with "Egyptian" motifs, make this book unique: such a colorful publication was beyond the dreams of 19th-century readers.
