Description
This famous, strange, wild novel was first issued anonymously by the 'Prince of Puffers', the fashionable publisher Henry Colburn, as a three-volume novel in 1827. This new scholarly edition places it in its previous and contemporary contexts. It concerns the Egyptian mummy of Cheops, who is brought back to life in the year 2126. The novel describes a future filled with advanced technology and features one of the earliest known examples of a "Mummy's curse. It attempted to predict the state of improvement to which this country might possibly arrive.
