New York: The Grafton Press Publishers. Hardcover. "The following pages relating to the Obelisk in Central Park, New York City, are reprinted without change from Judge Farman's book "Egypt and Its Betrayal,"which is an account of the country during the periods of Ismail and Tewfik Pashas, and how England acquiared a new empire. The story of Cleopatra's Needle has been frequently told in magazine and newspaper articles, but the following is the fullest and most authoritative account yet published and is of such historical value as to warrant it being issued in this separate form." Very Good. Item #8369
