Travels in Egypt and Palestine
Travels in Egypt and Palestine is a mid-nineteenth-century travelogue and archaeology book by Joseph Thomas, published in 1853 for general readers interested in topography and antiquities. Its pictures are small black-and-white wood engravings, several printed sideways on the page, showing landscapes, ruins and travellers; a designer might borrow their hatched shading and sparse, documentary composition for historical or expedition-themed work.
