Description:
This is a beautifully presented tour down the Nile, through large, color reproductions of 124 of David Robert's lithographs, first published in the 1840s. Each lithograph is accompanied by a smaller color photograph of the site or monument today, revealing how much or, as in some cases, how little Egypt has changed during the last 150 years. Concise discussions summarize Roberts' journey in the 1830s and the recent history of the monuments and are complemented by short extracts from Roberts' journal. The companion Volume, The Holy Land - Yesterday and Today, is also available.
