Like its companion volume The Fayoum- a practical guide, by Neil Hewison, this book was written for interested Egyptians and foreigners living in Cairo who enjoy day-trips at the weekend. A Guide to the Antiquities of the Fayyum deals specifically with the history and archaeology of the province, describing nineteen sites, their monuments and inscriptions, and the research work done on them. For each site a detailed itinerary from Cairo is given. Together, these two books form a unique quide to all aspects of the Fayyum which will interest the traveller.
