A five volume work which when completed by the last volume next fall will constitute a full and reliable source book of Egyptian history. The work is intended as a companion to the author’s “History of Egypt,” and in scope covers chronologically arranged inscriptions from the earliest records to the final loss of Egyptian independence by the Persian conquest.
