ABSTRACT

Originally published in 1891, this long out of print classic is republished here in its entirety. The work covers every aspect of Egyptology and its popularisation as a subject of widening interest. It is a compendium of detail and yet extremely erudite and readable. An excellent work for someone who wants a systematic introduction to Ancient Egypt and Egyptology.
