German Egyptologist, George Ebers, popularized Egyptian lore by incorporating them into Historical Romances. THE DAUGHTER OF AN EGYPTIAN KING was his first work, translated into English (Eine ägyptische Königstochter). Christian Bernhard Tauchnitz, German publisher, paid the English authors for the works his company published, and agreed to limit their sales of English-language books to the European continent. In 1841, Tauchnitz started his English-language editions, with the series "Collection Of British Authors". Although Tauchnitz's editions were authorized, and listed as the 'Copyright Edition', they were not protected from copyright infringement and he could offer no such protection to the authors he paid.
