For ages 9-14. Egypt is a land of startling contrasts -- parched deserts and lush oases, modern city buildings and ancient brick village houses. Spectacular photos feature Egypt’s mighty temples and pyramids alongside modern-day life on the Nile. Topics include: the Nile Valley and the Sinai Peninsula; the Sahara Desert and Qattara Depression; sandstorms, drought, and flooding; farming, transportation, and industry; thriving cities such as Cairo, Alexandria, and Luxor; wildlife and the problems of pollution and population.
