Concentrating on the era from Napoleon's conquest and the discovery of the Rosetta Stone to the outbreak of World War I, this book examines the evolution of Egyptian archaeology in the context of Western imperialism and nascent Egyptian nationalism. A fascinating book, well illustrated with maps, charts, photographs, and the notes are almost as interesting as the text! ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 424 pp
