Manuscript 2: Egyptian Mythology: Captivating Stories of the Gods, Goddesses, Monsters and Mortals
This manuscript is broken into three parts:

• Fantastic Images—Ancient Egyptian myths and legends as we know them today.
• Factual History—Covering pre-history through classical antiquity.
• Unraveling Myth—Looking at Egyptian mythology from a fresh perspective.

This part is jam-packed with fascinating facts and stories. For instance, it covers perhaps the most popular of all the Egyptian stories - the myth of Osiris. Pieces of this story have been found throughout Egypt. One of the most appealing aspects of the Osiris myth is the human-like behavior of the gods within the story. Many of the other gods of the Egyptian pantheon were rather emotionless and their stories far less interesting. With the Osiris story, the gods display a broad range of emotions that made them more real to mere mortals.
