Ramose bibliography

I learned everything I know about ancient Egypt from the wealth of books written on the subject. Thanks to the years of hard work of archaeologists and historians almost everything I wanted to know was in a book somewhere. These aren’t books for kids so they weren’t listed at the back of the Ramose books in a bibliography. I would like to acknowledge, here on my website, the books which gave me information and inspiration. Without these books I wouldn’t have been able to write the Ramose series.
