TRAVELS IN THE “Since the times of Eliot Warburton and Kinglake many writers have celebrated the delights of travel in the desert. None, I think, has realised the fascination of the desert more fully than Mr Weigall.”—Westminster Gazette. John Ward, F.S.A. (author of ‘Pyramids and Progress,’ &c.), writes: “... The very best book of travel ... I have seen for years; so interesting that it can be read with pleasure by people who know not Egypt, and so unpretendingly scientific ... that to one who is an expert Egyptologist it is a treasure-trove.
