The Lalibela Churches one is Charles River Editors at their best. It is packed with information and photos. I learned things. The Bradstreet one isn't bad, and is in fact, a good overview for a student.
Picked these up when they were offered for free, last year occurring to Amazon. The Suleiman one is the better of the two. I did want more information about his wives, but it is a good introduction. 3 stars. Guangzhou is more European centric than I liked. I understand that it was a trade ...
The Harriet Fox about Gilbert Paul Jordan is good. It has much information as Harriet Fox could find. The writing is good. The case overview is fine.

I am not talking about when they offer combined editions...
It really isn't about Petrie so much as about the development of modern Egyptology. It's not bad, but it's not as advertised. It is a good overview of Modern Egyptology.
