Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Researches in Sinai
When first I went to Egypt, twenty-six years ago, I read and noted the accounts of Sinai, in the hope that I might be able to visit the monuments there and this hope was not extinguished by all the intervening years of other work. The recent reports of monuments of the early dynasties gave additional reason for a Search which might supplement the discoveries at Abydos. And the reduction of the resources for my work with the Explora tion Fund made it imperative to take a site where copy ing was more required than excavation. Hence it came about that last winter we lived for four months in the wilderness instead of in the green plains of Egypt.
