Book synopsis

This is an illustrated story of the farmers, the god-king and the most astounding structure ever built; the story of the Great Pyramid of Ancient Egypt and the people who built it. In this book, the ancient kingdom comes alive: a nation of farmers living on the green edge of a harsh desert with a king who was a god to his people in life and in death. To his glory, tens of thousands of farmers left home each year to chisel hard stone without iron tools and to move 10-ton blocks up steep grades without the use of the wheel. It is illustrated throughout with detailed colour artwork by Laura Lo Turco. It is part of the "Wonders of the World" - the award-winning series that tells the stories behind humanity's most extraordinary creations.
