Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dictionnaire Encyclopedique des Sciences Medicales, Vol. 33: Egy-Emb
A la hauteur du Caire, les montagnes s ecartent en s'abaissant et tout le pays se nivelle; la chaine occidentale se termine en pente douce en courant vers la mer, la chaine orientale forme une sorte de muraille, au pied de laquelle s'etend l'immense plaine triangulaire ou le Nil se partage en mille canaux, et dont la base, formee par la cote meme de la Mediterranee, mesure plus de 200 kilometres, tandis que chacun des cotes n'en a pas moins de 150.
