It is refreshing to see that there exists a book on the market which examines the physical remains of Ancient Egyptian tools and not just the by-products of manufacture. Voice is given to the ancient smiths by letting the Ancient Egyptian depictions of their metal-workings speak for themselves, in private tombs stretching from the Old Kingdom to the New Kingdom, as well as the informative accompanying hieroglyphic inscriptions. Every kind of manufacture is considered in this well documented book. A must for all interested laypeople and scholars.
