Bibliography of published literature on Egypt from the earliest times to 1918.

This book is the definitive bibliography of published literature on Egypt from the earliest times to 1918, published as monographs or as parts of collected travelers' tales. Limited to firsthand accounts of Egypt by travelers who actually visited there, it excludes pure guidebooks and books of strictly historical, anthropological, archaeological, or political interest. Works in all the European languages (including Cyrillic languages) are included, or works translated into those languages. With a map and a historical sketch of travel to Egypt.

Martin R. Kalfatovic is a librarian at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American Art and National Portrait Gallery Library and a former research assistant at the Library of Congress. His interest in Egyptian travel literature was piqued after a visit there in 1987.
