Book Guide

An account of our common heritage from the dawn of civilization to the coming of the Greeks. After an introduction, giving a resume of what is known of prehistoric times, it begins with Egypt, describing the land, its architecture, civilization, life and religion, and treats successively the Assyrians and Babylonians, the Hebrews, Hittites, Persians and Phoenicians. Details of political events are subordinated to the record of those things which lie at the foundation of our modern civilization.
