From Napoleon Bonaparte with his schemes to control the overland route to India, to tomb-raiders such as Giovanni Belzoni; from scholars like hieroglyph-decoder Champollion to Thomas Cook and his wide-eyed tourists, this narrative illuminates a bygone world and charts the end of imperialism and the advent of Egyptian Independence.
