Description

Imagine living in a nation where killing a sacred cat is a capital offense! The Egypt of Pharaoh Thutmose III, in the times of Moses, was such a land. When Chebron, son of a priest, accidentally kills the sacred cat of Bubastes, his life becomes a series of harrowing adventures, with the only hope of safe haven for himself and his sister being a distant land, which can only be reached after fleeing through closely guarded Egyptian exits. Then they must embark on a challenging journey through unfamiliar lands populated by unfamiliar people and overcome numerous geographical obstacles.

G. A. Henty has produced a story which will give young readers an unsurpassed insight into the customs of the Egyptian empire.

Note: The Preston Speed cloth edition of this book is out of print. Grace and Truth Books is offering the alternative hardcover published by Robinson Books.
