This Dover edition, first published in 1978, is a republication of the work originally published in two volumes by John Murray of London, in 1920.  The present edition differs in the following ways: the volumes are divided differently; the originally appended List of Egyptian Hieroglyphic Characters in the Fount of Messrs. Harrison and Sons (a printer's catalogue) is here omitted; the dedication page is reproduced in black and white rather than in color; and a specially prepared text, "On the Arrangment of Words in This Dictionary," has been added."  T.p. verso, Dover ed.
