Dimensions: 9.0in. x 6.0in. x 1.0in.Excerpt from The Story of the Church of Egypt, Vol. 1 of 2: Being an Outline of the History of the Egyptians Under Their Successive Masters From the Roman Conquest Until NowThe aim which I have set myself in writing the following pages is a very humble one - to collect together in a readable fashion and in moderate compass all that the researches of scholars and historians have yet been able to discover about that remnant of the ancient Egyptian people popularly called the Copts, from the date of their first acceptance of Christianity until the present day. During the whole of that time their history is inextricably interwoven with that of the successive masters - Roman, Byzantine, Arab, Kurd, Circassian, and Turk - who have verily made the land of Egypt a house of bondage for her own children. There are many now who have discovered that the true descendants of the ancient Egyptians are Christians, not Mohammedans, and who would like to know something about them without the laborious search among dictionaries and translations which, to me, has been a labour of love.

Paperback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from The Story of the Church of Egypt, Vol. 1 of 2: Being an Outline of the History of the Egyptians Under Their Successive Masters From the Roman Conquest Until Now There is one point to which I should like to call attention. With one imperfect exception, of the seventh century, all the available books on the history of the Church of Egypt, as may be seen by the following list, have been written by men alien in race or hostile in creed - generally both. I would beg my readers to consider how the history of any Western Church would read if the only books upon the subject were written by men of another nationality, openly hostile or indifferent. I have not, to my knowledge, suppressed one disgraceful fact about an Egyptian Pope as recorded by these historians; yet I do not think the record of the Egyptian Church will be found to compare badly with the proudest of her Western sisters. Let us not forget, in our loyalty to our own Church, that the Church Catholic is above and includes all National Churches, all true Christians, ire respective of race or organisation. For as in Christ there is neither Jew nor Greek, neither bond nor free, though the distinctions remain; so in Christ there is neither Greek nor Roman, English nor Egyptian, for we have all come into the kingdom of our Father.
