A restoration to life of the ancient Pharoahs The best edition of this keystone work of British Egyptology, carefully revised by Samuel Birch, this copy in an attractive contemporary binding. First published in 1837, The Quarterly Review referred to Wilkinson's minutely detailed and superbly illustrated work as a "restoration to life, as it were, of the ancient Pharaohs, and their subjects".

He accomplished an extraordinary amount of work at most of the major archaeological sites then known in Egypt and recorded them in his numerous notebooks and sketchbooks. His sketches are rendered… Read More
