Produktbeschreibung

This new edition of Egypt: A Brief History from Ancient to Modern Times, first published in 1949, was one of several invaluable and informative books on Egyptian history, written by the British Army Lieut.-Col. P. G. Elgood, who was stationed in Egypt during World War I.This new edition contains two supplemental chapters that bring the story of Egypt from 1935, where Lt.-Col. Elgood left it, to the Allied victory of Alamein, November 1942. They were contributed by a close friend of Elwood, who was a competent student of Egyptian affairs."e;THE history of Pharaonic Egypt is confused, the chronology uncertain. Despite generations of research, there are gaps still unbridged, inconsistencies still awaiting explanation. Dynasties rise and fall, doctrines blossom and decay: empire fades, ambitions wither. Such in the main is the story which records and monuments covering a period of three thousand years tell. Yet its study is worth the pains, for ancient Egypt, has profoundly influenced the culture of the world."e;-Chapter 1
