''Along The Nile With General Grant'' is a historical travelogue written by Elbert Eli Farman and published in 1904. The book chronicles the journey of former US President Ulysses S. Grant and his wife Julia on their tour of Egypt and the Holy Land in 1877-1878. Farman, who was a member of Grant’s entourage and a journalist, provides a detailed account of their travels along the Nile River, visiting ancient temples, ruins, and tombs. He also describes their encounters with local people, customs, and traditions. The book offers a unique perspective on Grant’s personal and political life, as well as the cultural and historical significance of the places they visited. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in history, travel, and the life of one of America’s most famous leaders.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
