Description

The Steppe and the Sown. The preface reads. "From time immemorial the peaceful grain-growers, fully engaged with the cultivation of their crops, have suffered from the depredations of nomad pastoral folk, who wandered with their flocks and herds on the waste spaces around them. This volume deals with the first of such raids that took place on a large scale, destroying as it did the Old Kingdom in Egypt, and bringing to an end by a more gradual process the rule of the city states of Sumer."
