Lepsius was the foremost Prussian Egyptologist. His three-year expedition to Giza in 1842 established him as the Father of the scientific discipline of Egyptology. He was also a prominent scholar in African languages. This is a translation of his Briefe aus Aegypten, Aethiopien und der Halbinsel des Sinai. His 12-volume work on the pyramids, DENKMALER AUS AEGYPTEN UND AETHIOPIEN, especially remains essential. Chromolithograph of Mount Barkal (Nubia), folding map of the Nile River, and a monochromatic plate

Sobre Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
