The History of Egypt
ISBN: 9783565070992 / Angielski / Miękka / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. You have to stomach the stark reality that Egypt's history isn't a sun-drenched parade of god-kings and golden barges, but a savage scramble over sand and skulls, where pharaohs stacked slaves like bricks for pyramids that mocked the masses from on high. "The History of Egypt" skips the gift-shop glamour; it gouges into the grit, from the predynastic butchers hacking heads for river gods to the Ptolemaic puppet-shows where Cleopatra bedded Romans to buy a few more years of borrowed throne. This is the unvarnished vein: a cradle of civilization that cradled corpses in catacombs, where the...

A History of Egypt: From Earliest Times to the Present
ISBN: 9780307473523 / Angielski / Miękka / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In A History of Egypt, Jason Thompson has written the first one-volume work to encompass all 5,000 years of Egyptian history, highlighting the surprisingly strong connections between the ancient land of the Pharaohs and the modern-day Arab nation.
No country's past can match Egypt's in antiquity, richness, and variety. However, it is rarely presented as a comprehensive panorama because scholars tend to divide it into distinct eras prehistoric, pharaonic, Greco-Roman, Coptic, medieval Islamic, Ottoman, and modern that are not often studied in relation to one another. In this... In A History of Egypt, Jason Thompson has written the first one-volume work to encompass all 5,000 years of Egyptian history, highlight...

The 1973 Arab-Israeli War: The Albatross of Decisive Victory
ISBN: 9781780390222 / Angielski / Miękka / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Six Day War of June 1967 saw the Israel Defense Force (IDF) achieve a decisive military victory over Egypt, Jordan, and Syria while sustaining relatively few casualties. Despite the subsequent image of Israel as a regional military superpower, Egypt attacked again in 1973, eventually resulting in a peace treaty that promised to return the entire Sinai to Egypt. It is the contention of "The 1973 Arab-Israeli War: The Albatross of Decisive Victory" that the IDFs dramatic 1967 victory unconsciously created an albatross in the form of a belief in its own invulnerability coupled with the...

It is a fascinating and compelling aspect of the character of Napoleon Bonaparte that as his star accelerated towards its zenith, his imagination and ambition for his own potential and those of the French revolutionary spirit he represented knew almost no limits. He saw the dominance of Europe and the Mediterranean region as but a gateway into the world at large with a limitless resource of lands, assets, trade and political influence not only for the taking but within the scope of his abilities to win. This found a French... Napoleon's Egyptian adventure by an Egyptian historian
