About this title

Synopsis

Revised and updated for 1999, this guide fills a vital niche for all who need a helping hand to organize and enjoy Cairo. Advice gathered from a wide range of insiders, both native and foreign, gives the reader a cornucopia of current facts on prices, neighborhoods, shopping, work and business opportunities, and cultural and leisure pursuits. Including an A-to-Z directory of goods, services, and interests subdivided by Cairene Arabic; details on shopping and sightseeing from a resident's perspective; and a separate map booklet, Cairo: The Practical Guide is the key to deciphering the complexities of living, working, and enjoying life in one of the world's most exciting and complex cities.

Store Description

A large collection of privately owned publications, mostly relating to ancient Egypt (all periods), Nubia, and the surrounding areas, which have been gathered together over the course of the last fifty years. Books range from second-hand in good condition to extremely rare, with a number of recently acquired brand new volumes. Over the years I have also procured a selection of withdrawn university library books. The collection further includes a significant number of scholarly journals and popular magazines about the ancient world. Please browse the titles currently available. Additional works are still being added. There are hundreds more yet to be listed. If you should have any questions about any of these offerings, please feel free to inquire. Emails are attempted to be answered in an expeditious manner. Your purchases are always carefully wrapped and shipped promptly. The books come from a smoke-free household. Photographs are available to those seriously interested.
