Non-Fiction History
The Egypt that so enticed and enchanted intrepid
archaeologist-sleuth Amelia Peabody in the late nineteenth
and twentieth centuries was a place of wonder, mystery,
danger, and the lure of antiquity. Now, with this monumental
volume of Egyptian culture, history, and arcania, readers
will be able to immerse themselves in the great lady's world
more completely than ever before. Journey through the
bustling streets and markets of Cairo a hundred years ago.
Surround yourself with the customs and color of a bygone
time. Explore ancient tombs and temples and marvel at the
history of this remarkable land -- from the age of the
pharaohs through the Napoleonic era to the First World War.
Also included in Amelia Peabody's Egypt are a hitherto
unpublished journal entry and intimate biographies of the
Emersons and their friends, which provide a uniquely
personal view of the lives, relationships, opinions,
politics, and delightful eccentricities of mystery's first
family, as well as unforgettable pearls of wit and wisdom
from everyone's favorite fictional Egyptologist
herself. Containing nearly 600 black-and-white
photographs and illustrations, and articles by numerous
experts, Amelia Peabody's Egypt sparkles with unforgettable
glimpses of the exotic and the bizarre, the unusual and the
unfamiliar -- a treasure trove that overflows with
Egyptological riches, along with wonderful insights into the
culture and mores of the Victorian era, including the
prevalent attitudes on empire, fashion, feminism, tourists,
servants, and much more. A one-of-a-kind collection
that offers endless hours of pleasure for Peabodyphiles and
Egypt aficionados alike, here is a tome to cherish; a grand
and glorious celebration of the life, the work, and the
world of the incomparable Amelia Peabody.
