This vintage book contains a simple introduction to the study of Egyptian hieroglyphics by E. A. Wallis Budge. Together with an introduction to the subject, it also includes an account of the decipherment of Egyptian Hieroglyphics, as well as an outline of the system of writing and general principles of the use of pictures to express ideas.

He worked for the British Museum and published numerous works on the ancient 'Near East'.
