Synopsis

The original 1915 edition, meticulously preserved. This edition moves beyond the sterile, mass-market reproductions often found today to bring you a premium Collector's Facsimile. Every page maintains the historical pagination and aesthetic of the source text, paired with a bespoke cover design unique to this imprint. In The Magic of the Pyramids and the Mystery of the Sphinx (1915), A. Bothwell-Gosse transforms the silent monuments of Egypt into vivid narrators of their own legends, weaving archaeology, myth, and mysticism into a tapestry of discovery. Written with scholarly precision yet glowing with imaginative verve, the book invites readers into a world where granite corridors whisper the secrets of the ancients, and the Sphinx's inscrutable gaze conceals spiritual truths as much as historical puzzles. Bothwell-Gosse's prose-erudite, poetic, and often delightfully eccentric-makes this more than an antiquarian study; it is an adventure in thought, a celebration of the strange enchantment that still clings to the sands of Gizeh, where science and sorcery, reason and reverence, meet beneath the eternal Egyptian sun.
