Description

G. A. Henty was a writer of stories of historical fiction. "Thanks to the care with which the Egyptians depicted the minutest doings of their daily life, to the dryness of the climate which has preserved these records for so many thousand years, and to the indefatigable labor of modern investigators, we know more of the manners and customs of the Egyptians, their methods of work, sports and amusements, their public festivals, and domestic life, than we do of peoples comparatively modern. My object in the present story has been to give you as lively a picture as possible of that life."
