Bring history back to life through Jim Hodges' historically accurate, exciting and edifying audio recordings.

In this Henty novel covering one of the oldest time periods, listeners will learn much about the domestic life, customs, religion, and military system of ancient Egypt. Amuba, a prince of the Rebu nation on the shores of the Caspian Sea, along with his charioteer Jethro, are carried into slavery after losing a battle with the Egyptians. They become servants of the house of Ameres, an Egyptian high priest, and are quite happy there until the priest's son accidentally kills the sacred cat of Bubastes. The locals rise up in rage and kill Ameres, and Jethro and Amuba must escape with the high priest's son and daughter. After crossing the desert to the Red Sea, they eventually make their way back to freedom. The Henty Historical Novel Collection, written by George Henty in the 1800s, covers many time periods in history throughout the world.
