Book Overview

""A History of Events in Egypt from 1798 to 1914"" is a comprehensive account of the political, social, and cultural developments in Egypt during the period between the French invasion of 1798 and the outbreak of World War I in 1914. The author, Arthur Edward Pearse Brome Weigall, was a prominent British archaeologist, historian, and Egyptologist who served as the Inspector-General of Antiquities in Egypt from 1905 to 1911.
