description: Originally published in 1891,this work covers every aspect of Egyptology and its popularization 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.In this series of lectures, Edwards' personality sparkles through the pages. In one chapter, she describes in detail a Queen of Egypt, Hatasu, dissenting from other Egyptologists who minimized her importance. Edwards' love and knowledge of Egyptology are ably demonstrated in this collection. See other works by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
