Imagine a great and ancient city by a river…
A city with obelisks, sphinxes, and statues of the gods. With gardens where lotus and papyrus, date, pomegranate and incense bushes grow; where the honoured dead are buried in elaborate tombs.
But this is not Memphis or Luxor…it is London

Egyptian London, a forthcoming book from Chris Elliott, explores our fascination with Ancient Egypt through its links to London
From Abney Park Cemetery to London Zoo, from Wembley to Wanstead, from Camden Town to Crystal Palace, anyone with an interest in Egypt, Londoner or visitor, is never far from somewhere in London with an Egyptian connection. But where until now could you find out about them?
Egyptian London will tell you…
Covering over two hundred and fifty sites in the capital, with brief biographies of over 175 personalities and more than forty topic essays, it will appeal to anyone interested in Ancient Egypt and the history of one of the world’s great cities.
