Egyptian Cobra

by Jessica O'Donnell

Book Overview

The Egyptian cobra is one of the most historic snakes in Africa--and one of the most deadly. Many historians believe it's the "asp" that fatally bit the Egyptian queen, Cleopatra, thousands of years ago. Today, this exotic slitherer is the favorite dancing partner for snake charmers. This engaging book is packed with interesting facts about Egyptian cobras, as well as vibrant photographs of these hooded snakes on the attack.
