Author Description

In this highly readable work, Nick Thom re-examines the evidence for dating of the ancient Middle East - and proceeds to retell history as it has never been told before. The founding of ancient Egypt in around 3000BC marks the start of a voyage of historical discovery, fascinating for those for whom the subject is new - extremely surprising for those who think they know it already. Most surprising of all for some will be the new light shed on Bible characters such as David, Samson, Moses and Joseph, once they are assigned their true place in the history of the region.
