The Amelia Peabody Series is set in Egypt and England during the last of the 19th century and the first part of the 20th.  This volume, Designed by Dennis Forbes of KMT and edited by Elizabeth Peters and Kristen Whitbread, uses contemporary etchings, photos  and accounts to provide further detail and background to the period. 

The volume includes excerpts from Emerson's diaries about the events in 1885 that resulted in his marriage to Amelia.  

The articles range from the expected to the unexpected, for example:

A Splendid Overview of Egyptology: Napoleon to World War I by Dennis Forbes 

and 

A Skillful Overview of Victorian Servants & Their Duties by Margareta Knauff

There is a Section devoted to "People, Places and Things" which includes an short introduction to all the characters in the "Journals".

And there is a further reading list.

For those who want to know more, or who just want to keep all the details of the series straight, this is a must-have volume.

It's publication may signal the end of the series, but I, for one, sincerely hope that SHE has more stories to tell about the Emersons.  We will just have to wait and see.
