Travels in Egypt and Nubia, Syria, and Asia Minor, during the Years 1817 and 1818

Omtale

Charles Irby and James Mangles, both officers in the Royal Navy, left England in 1816 for a tour of the continent, but extended their journey through Egypt and the Levant. This detailed account of their two-year travels, privately printed in 1823, provides much information of interest to archaeologists and historians.
