Cook's Handbook For Egypt And The Sudan Part 1

Volume 1 of 2. Following the general suggestions by J.M. Cook, Budge originally prepared this work as a short guide to the principal Egyptian monuments on the Nile so far south as the Second Cataract, usually visited by tourists who traveled on the Nile under Cook's direction. Over time, a great deal of information of all kinds about places and monuments off the beaten path came to Budge's attention, which he added to the original guidebook, thus this present work.
