Thoroughly enjoyable to page through at leisure
Collaboratively created by poet Roger Cooper and photographer John Erickson, Impressions is a unique melding of full-color photography and poetry. Images of nature combine with spiritual free-verse lyrics, each preserved without deliberate knowledge of or reference to one another, and presented side by side, offering the reader a memorable series of visual, literary, and emotional experiences far greater than the sum of its parts. Impressions is enthusiastically recommended as a relaxing and emotionally contemplative work that is thoroughly enjoyable to page through at leisure.

Egyptian tales are included in this book
Alphabetically organized, this dictionary lists numerous entries on the Egyptian pantheon of gods, mythology and religious beliefs. It also covers such subjects as mummies, pyramids, magic and calendar. The complete translation of major Egyptian tales (The Tale of Sinuhe, the Tale of the Magicians and the Doomed Prince, among many others) are included in this book. Illustrated in black and white, it is mostly useful for students of Egyptology.
Filled cover to cover with condensed myths
Now in a revised and updated second edition, Who's Who In Egyptian Mythology compiled and co-authored by Antony S. Mercatante and Robert Steven Bianchi presents the Egyptian pantheon and a compendium of related topics, historical personages, and themes pertinent to it in and arranged in an alphabetical order, and an encyclopedia-style, from Akhenaten to Zehuti (another name for Thoth). A most fascinating reference filled cover to cover with condensed myths, history, and archaeological discoveries, Who's Who In Egyptian Mythology is a highly recommended addition to any personal, professional, academic, or community library Egyptology reference collection.
A splendid reference for the Egyptian mythology enthusiast
I am always drawing the gods & godesses of Egyptian myth, but there are very few good books that give descriptions and/or pictures of a large amount of their dieties. This book proved to be the largest and best guide to the egyptian myths, folklore, and symbols that I have found. The pictures are OK, but the information is WONDERFUL! I use it all the time.
