Fluent in Arabic, Edward William Lane (1801–76) devoted his life's study to Egypt. This well-illustrated two-volume work was first published in 1836. Volume 2 primarily details Cairo's vibrant public space, covering drug use, games, street music and dancers, snake charmers, storytelling, celebratory festivals, and funerals.
