Rumford goes into more detail about the complexity of hieroglyphs than most other books, and helps young readers understand the difficulties faced by Champollion and others who struggled to understand the ancient languages of Egypt. The soft water-color paintings (by Rumford) portray France in the 1800s, as well as both ancient and modern Egypt.
