| |
| THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS |
| |
| _Illustrated_ |
| |
| |
| An account of the Egyptians of the |
| unrecorded past as revealed by the |
| investigations of the anthropologist. The |
| author traces to their source the various |
| streams of alien immigrants which made their |
| way into the Nile valley, and correlates his |
| facts with the great racial movements in the |
| neighbouring continents. He shows how the |
| Egyptians inaugurated a higher |
| civilisation--particularly in bringing the |
| Stone Age to a close and introducing the use |
| of metals. |

| "This is a brilliant little book, |
| illuminating the whole subject of the |
| history of the human race since man assumed |
| his proper shape."--_Manchester Guardian._ |
