By A Customer
This review is from: Coptic Egypt: The Christians of the Nile (Discoveries) (Paperback)
This neat book provides the enquirer of Coptic Egypt with a wealth of information in both text and image. It traces the story of the Copts from the first Church of Alexandria to the modern era and includes a useful section on related documents. It is well placed in the Discovery Series.
