To Doctor George Bird.

My Dear Bird,
This is not a strictly medical work, although in places
treating of subjects which may modestly be called hygienic. I
inscribe it to you because your knowledge of Egypt will enable
you to appreciate its finer touches; and for another and a yet
more cogent reason, namely, that you are one of my best and
oldest friends.

Ever yours sincerely,

Richard F. Burton

Athenaeum Club, October 20, 1885.
