Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

Professor Maspero closes his History of Egypt with the conquest of Alexander the Great.

There is a sense of dramatic fitness in this selection, for, with the com ing of the Macedonians, the sceptre of authority passed for ever out of the hand of the Egyptian.

For sev eral centuries the power of the race had been declin ing, and foreign nations had contended for the vast treasure-house of Egypt.

Alexander found the Persians virtually rulers of the land.

The ancient people whose fame has come down to us through centuries untarnished had been forced to bow beneath the yoke of foreign masters, and nations of alien blood were henceforth to dominate its history.
