M. L. MCCLURE. With Map, 3 Colored Plates, and over 400
Illustrations. Uniform with "The Dawn of Civilization." Quarto.

This important work is a companion volume to "The Dawn of Civilization,"
and carries the history of the ancient peoples of the East from the
twenty-fourth to the ninth century before our era. It embraces the
sojourn of the Children of Israel in Egypt, and shows the historic
connection between Egypt and Syria during the centuries immediately
following the exodus. The book embodies the latest discoveries in the
Field of Egyptian and Oriental archæology, and there is no other work
dealing so exhaustively with the period covered.
_THE DAWN OF CIVILIZATION._ (EGYPT AND CHALDÆA.) By Prof. G.
MASPERO. Edited by Rev. Prof. A. H. SAYCE. Translated by M. L.
MCCLURE. Revised and brought up to date by the Author. With Map and
over 470 Illustrations. Quarto. Cloth, $7.50.
"The most sumptuous and elaborate work which has yet appeared on this
theme.... The book should be in every well-equipped Oriental library, as
the most complete work on the dawn of civilization. Its careful reading
and studying will open a world of thought to any diligent student, and
very largely broaden and enlarge his views of the grandeur, the
stability, and the positive contributions of the civilization of that
early day to the life and culture of our own times."--_Chicago
Standard._
"By all odds the best account of Egyptian and Assyrian theology, or,
more properly speaking, theosophy, with which we are acquainted.... The
book will arouse many enthusiasms. Its solid learning will enchant the
scholar--its brilliancy will charm the general reader and tempt him into
a region which he may have hesitated to enter."--_The Outlook._
"The most complete reconstruction of that ancient life which has yet
appeared in print. Maspero's great book will remain the standard work
for a long time to come."--_London Daily News._
