Egypt #262748

Egypts — the historical land of the Pharaohs lying in the Nile Valley and the deserts; and modern Egypt — the em pire of the Khedive, which his grandfather, Ismail Pasha, so aptly said was no longer a part of Africa, but belonged to Europe. In this Egypt of the Twentieth Century there are hotels to please the most fastidious Americans and Europeans; fifteen hundred miles of railways with trains fitted with all the luxuries known to the present age; and automobiles and electric trains to the Pyramids.
