Bohato ilustrovaná kniha Egypt: Kráľovstvo faraónov poskytuje najnovšie teórie vysvetľujúce túto sofistikovanú kultúru, zameriava sa na najdôležitejšie osobnosti, náleziská či artefakty a vysvetľuje tamojšie zvyky, obyčaje i vyznania. Impozantné výtvory ako sfinga, pyramídy, hrobky v Údolí kráľov a veľkolepé chrámy v Luxore a Karnaku sú dôkazom veľkosti a moci tejto civilizácie.
