The History of Egypt from Ancient Times to the Persian Conquest

The fundamental work of James Breasted, a professor of Egyptology and Ancient Near Eastern History at the University of Chicago, covers more than three thousand years of the history of the greatest state of the Ancient World. Based on authentic... sources—hieroglyphic writings inscribed on the walls of temples in Amarna, Luxor, and Thebes, dedicatory and burial inscriptions on priceless artifacts from the collection of the Cairo Museum and the largest museums in Europe, as well as samples of fine literature from the Middle and New Kingdoms—the historian traces the fates of the kings and queens of twenty-six ruling dynasties of Egypt, creating vivid portraits of statesmen, priests, and peaceful workers of the most enigmatic civilization of antiquity.
