Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Uarda, Vol. 1 of 2: A Romance of Ancient Egypt
In the first instance I intended to. Elucidate this story - like my Egyptian Princess - with numerous and extensive notes placed at the end; but I was led to give up this plan from finding that it would lead me to the repetition of much that I had written in the notes to that earlier work.
The numerous notes to the former novel had a threefold purpose. In the first place they served to explain the text; in the second they were a guarantee of the care with which I had striven to depict the archaeological details in all their individuality from the records of the monuments and of Classic Authors; and thirdly I hoped to supply the reader who desired further knowledge of the period with some guide to his studies.
