About this book
Four ancient Egyptian stories, translated from papyri and edited by W. M. Flinders Petrie, make up this second series: The Taking of Joppa, The Doomed Prince, Anpu and Bata, and Setna and the Magic Book, each followed by remarks. Petrie, then professor of Egyptology at University College London, says in his preface that these are not fairy tales but accounts of human men and women, whose beliefs and follies still seem familiar. Tristram Ellis supplied the illustrations. The series first appeared in 1895; this is the second edition of 1913.
