Egypts Place In Universal History An Historical Investigation In Five Books Volume 2 PDF Download

Excerpt from Egypt's Place in Universal History, Vol. 2 of 5: An Historical Investigation in Five Books I am aware that I must claim the indulgence of my English readers for having allowed so long a time to elapse in the continuation of this work, the First Volume of which appeared in 1848. The Second and Third Books contained in the present Volume were indeed printed in German in 1845, as the First Book was in 1843, being the result of researches into the authorities upon Egyptian Chronology and History commenced in 1834. It was, at that time, my intention to have sent the Fourth to press in the following year. I soon, however, became convinced that it was due, both to my readers and myself, to publish the two remaining Books, the Fourth and Fifth together, in order to remove as much as possible all questions and misunderstandings which these researches might occasion on various points. The Second and Third Books, moreover, required a thorough revision. It was very naturally my wish not to conclude that revision for the English edition, until the main results of the great Prussian Expedition to Egypt and Ethiopia should be promulgated.
