About Handbook For Travellers In Egypt: Including
Excerpt from Handbook for Travellers in Egypt: Including Descriptions of the Course of the Nile Through Egypt and Nubia, Alexandria, Cairo, the Pyramids, and Thebes, the Suez Canal, the Peninsula of Mount Sinai, the Oases, the Fyoom, &CThe original Handbook for Egypt was a reprint of Sir Gardner Wilkinson's learned and exhaustive work, Modern Egypt and Thebes,' corrected and revised by the erudite author himself, so as to meet as far as possible the requirements of a guide book. A few additions and corrections were sub sequently made from time to time, but substantially the Handbook remained the same as when it was first published. Great changes, however, have taken place in Egypt since then, especially during the last ten years, and it was felt that a thorough revision, and even recasting, were necessary in order to bring the Handbook up to the standard required by travellers at the present day.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
