Description: One of the most famous surviving collections of texts from ancient Egypt, The Egyptian Book of the Dead brings together funerary writings, spells, prayers and incantations intended to guide the dead through the dangers and mysteries of the afterlife.
Translated by renowned Egyptologist E. A. Wallis Budge and edited with an introduction by John Baldock, this illustrated edition offers a fascinating insight into ancient Egyptian beliefs surrounding death, judgement, the gods and the journey beyond this world.
Presented in a handsome black hardback with gold detailing and illustrations throughout, it is as attractive on the shelf as it is fascinating to explore.
A beautiful addition for anyone interested in ancient Egypt, mythology, historical spiritual practices or the history of magic and the occult.
