Description
Kelly describes each site and museum, from its pyramids and temples to its hieroglyphic stairways and ""eccentric flints."" She includes many site plans, and her description of each site includes its ancient history as well as its recent archaeological activity.
Equally important, Kelly describes exactly how to get there. Clear maps and precise written directions include the distance (in miles and kilometers) and the driving time required for each segment of the trip. If you need a four-wheel-drive vehicle to negotiate rutted dirt roads, Kelly tells you. If you need a guide, she tells you where to find one.
