WILLS, E.F.

Egypt in Bristol. A Prehistoric Study Embracing the Mendips, South Gloucestershire and Bristol.

Bristol: St Stephen's Bristol Press Ltd, nd.(1937). "My interest in the subject was first aroused by a chance reading of the tract, "Up the Camel River". Later essays carried Egyptian names and evidence to Exmoor, the Quantocks, and up to the confines of Bristol at Keynsham and Mangotsfield. This raised the question as to whether the city itself as well as the surrounding country and particularly the river-valleys, might not contain evidence of ancient Egypt." (Introduction). Pp.viii/64, occasional line maps. Blue/grey boards, slightly rubbed with darkening to spine, small dent to ore-edge of front board. Scarce. G+.
