Overview
The father of story-tellers, Herodotus had a philosophy of history. Most of his life is unknown, except that he spent much of it traveling to collect to material for his writings. This is the story of Herodutus' travels through Egypt. A descriptive tale of Egyptian customs, rituals and history as told by Egyptian Priests. A very delightful reading.Synopsis
