Encounter your African heritage, not only in Ghana, Senegal, but yes, in Egypt.

Sometimes passed by in the quest for roots, Egypt flows from the heart of Africa, nourished not only by the waters of the Nile, but also by the peoples and cultures of its continent. Egypt’s traditional borders stretch far to the south, into the heart of the continent. The Nubians, so evidently African, built the great temples of Luxor and Abu Simbel. Tall and mighty, they embodied the ideals of the kingdom in the personal guard of the Pharaohs and the presidential guard of today. Cast a glance at the peoples of Egypt, and you’ll see Africa, not only in Nubia, but in every walk of life, up to the presidency of Anwar Sadat.

Don’t overlook the obvious! You’ll be welcomed in Egypt, and you’ll feel at home, as part of the African family

PREFACE
TO THE SECOND EDITION

FIRST published in 1877, this book has been out of print for several years. I have therefore very gladly revised it for a new and cheaper edition. In so revising it, I have corrected some of the historical notes by the light of later discoveries; but I have left the narrative untouched. Of the political changes which have come over the land of Egypt since that narrative was written, I have taken no note; and because I in no sense offer myself as a guide to others, I say nothing of the altered conditions under which most Nile travellers now perform the trip. All these things will be more satisfactorily, and more practically, learned from the pages of Baedeker and Murray.
