Böcker av Annie Abernethie Pirie Quibell

This 1923 book is intended to provide a historical context for those visiting Egyptian museum collections. Quibell advises that it should be skimmed through before any visit, 'sufficiently to get an impression of the great length of Egyptian history', but can be used afterwards to follow up any particular interest.

In this 1925 book, as well as discussing the famous archaeological sites, archaeologist and Egyptian resident Annie Quibell (a student of Flinders Petrie) describes Port Said (the entrance to the Suez Canal), the Nile delta, the Coptic church and its long history, and an expedition into the desert.
