An Ancient Egypt The Light of the World

Gerald Massey’s first two Egyptology series flipped conventional wisdom on its head, arguing that Egypt not only founded human civilization, but that Egyptian mythology formed the foundation for Jewish and Christian beliefs. Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World is Massey’s crown treasure, the culmination of his years of scholarly effort. Massey, ever the intrepid escort, leads a tour through thousands of years of sociological, cultural, and spiritual development, all the while pointing to a distant, common Egyptian origin with dazzling reason and persuasive prose in this, his most philosophical (in both tone and concept) of his Egyptological works.
