Memoranda, Illustrative of the Tombs and Sepulchral Decorations of the Egyptians; With a Key to the Egyptian Tomb Now Exhibiting in Piccadilly: Also, ... on the Process of Embalming (Classic Reprint)

In presenting the following remarks upon the mythological character of the Royal Egyptian Tomh, the Author feels no common apprehensions of being classed as presumptuous and pretending. He fully appreciates the danger and difficulty of coming forward with any explanation upon a subject that seems to be exclusively the province of the most elaborate learning ;but he has only sought to explain the glimmering lights of history, by the aid of important recent discoveries, and thereby endeavour at eliciting truth upon a subject confessedly abstruse.
