Come with me into a world of untrodden valleys, haunted roads, distant cities, ancient temples, and lives governed by passions no less mysterious than the past itself.

The Amelia B. Edwards Library presents the works of the remarkable Victorian novelist, traveller, Egyptologist, and teller of ghost stories, read in full. From the shadowy suspense of her supernatural tales to her journeys along the Nile and through the mountains of Europe, these are books written with curiosity, wit, courage, and an inexhaustible appetite for discovery.
