Following in the footsteps of Napoleon's army, Europeans invaded Egypt in the early nineteenth century to gaze in wonder at the massive, inscrutable remains of its ancient civilizations. One of these travelers was a twenty-four-year-old Englishman, John Gardner Wilkinson. His copious observations of ancient and modern Egyptian places, artifacts, and lifeways, recorded in such widely read publications as Manners and Customs of the Ancient Egyptians and Handbook for Travellers in Egypt, made him the leading early Victorian authority on ancient Egypt and paved the way for thc scientific study of Egyptology. In this first full-scale biography of Wilkinson (1797-1875), Jason Thompson skillfully portrays both the man and his era. He follows Wilkinson during his initial sojourn in Egypt (1821-1833) as Wilkinson immersed himself in a contemporary Egyptian lifestyle and in study of its ancient past. He shows Wilkinson in his circle of friends—among them Edward William Lane, Robert Hay and Frederick Catherwood. And he traces how Wilkinson continued to use his Egyptian material in the decades following his return to England. With the rise of professional Egyptology in the middle and later nineteenth century, Sir Gardner Wilkinson came to be viewed as an amateur and his popularity diminished. Drawing upon recently opened sources, Thompson returns Wilkinson to his rightful place within centuries of Egyptian scholarship and assesses both the vision and the limitations of his work. The result is a compelling portrait of a Victorian "gentleman-scholar" and his cultural milieu.

Baseball pioneer J. L. Wilkinson (1878-1964) was the owner and founder, in 1920, of the famed Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro Leagues. The only white owner in the Negro National League (NNL), Wilkinson earned a reputation for treating players with fairness and respect. He began his career in Iowa as a player, later organizing a traveling women's team in 1908 and the multiracial All-Nations club in 1912. He led the Monarchs to two Negro Leagues World Series championships and numerous pennants in the NNL and the Negro American League. During the Depression he developed an ingenious portable lighting system for night games, credited with saving black baseball. He resurrected the career of legendary pitcher Satchel Paige in 1938 and in 1945 signed a rookie named Jackie Robinson to the Monarchs. Wilkinson was posthumously inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2006, joining 14 Monarchs players.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On a cold February evening in 1829, Captain Charles Hawkins returned home to his wife, who was having an affair with his attorney, William Allison McRea. He shot McRea, but it was too late. The young man had escaped. #2 The next morning, the sun temporarily turned the island’s warehouses and wharves pale shades of rose and tangerine. Captain Charles Hawkins was impatient, and he marched through Key West’s dirt roads to the boarding house where McRea resided. #3 The two men walked a set number of paces apart, and then shot at each other. William Whitehead recorded that Hawkins’ first ball passed through McRea’s overcoat and glanced, while his second went through his pantaloons and bruised his body. #4 The tradition of dueling in western society stretches back centuries, with roots in the Middle Ages. It was particularly popular among the aristocracy in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Europe. In the United States, it fell out of favor among the upper classes, but it persisted in the South among the aristocratic planter class.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Egyptian Nile is born of the confluence of two great rivers, the Blue Nile which rises in the highlands of Ethiopia, and the White Nile which is fed by Lake Victoria. It flows northwards for a thousand miles until it reaches the sea. #2 The Nile has always been a source of wonder for Egyptians. They have always been aware of their unique environment, and have shaped their society and world view based on it. #3 The Nile’s water has always been more likely to kill than cure, but it does have miraculous properties. Its water and nutrients are magical under the Egyptian sun, and Egypt was able to develop a sophisticated civilization thanks to it. #4 The Nile was not just a source of Egypt’s agricultural wealth, but also a great waterway that connected every settlement in the country.
