A Journey To Two Of The Oases Of Upper Egypt (1822)

""A Journey To Two Of The Oases Of Upper Egypt"" is a travelogue written by Archibald Edmonstone, originally published in 1822. The book describes the author's journey to the oases of Dakhla and Kharga in Upper Egypt, which were largely unexplored at the time. Edmonstone provides a detailed account of the geography, flora, and fauna of the region, as well as the customs and traditions of the local inhabitants. He also discusses the historical and archaeological significance of the oases, including the ruins of ancient settlements and temples. The book is an important source of information on the exploration of Egypt during the early 19th century, and provides a fascinating glimpse into a largely unknown and mysterious region of the country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
