Crocodile on the Sandbank

The Crocodile on the Sandbank was first published in 1901, and has since sold over a million copies. People generally enjoy the book and find it to be a fun and easy read. However, some have criticized the book for its lack of depth and character development.

Elizabeth Peters was an American author who wrote mystery novels, often featuring historical settings and famous literary and historical figures. Her best-known character was the intrepid archaeologist and sleuth Amelia Peabody.

The Crocodile on the Sandbank is about a young woman named Amelia Peabody who discovers a tomb in Egypt and decides to become an archaeologist. She then meets a man named Radcliffe Emerson and they get married and have a child. They also discover many other tombs and artifacts together.

If you are looking for a fun and easy read, I recommend Crocodile on the Sandbank by Elizabeth Peters. It is the first book in the Amelia Peabody series and it is a great introduction to the characters. The book is set in Egypt and it is a great way to learn about the country and its history.
