The book is a personal account of the author's travels and research in the Middle East, specifically in Egypt and the Sinai Peninsula. Agnes Smith Lewis, along with her sister Margaret Dunlop Gibson, embarked on a journey to the Middle East in 1895 with the aim of studying and transcribing ancient manuscripts in various languages.
