As Hatasu adapts to his new life, he also falls in love with a beautiful woman named Nefert, who is the daughter of a wealthy merchant. However, their love is forbidden as they come from different social classes. Hatasu must navigate his feelings for Nefert while also dealing with the challenges of living in the desert and the constant threat of attack from enemy tribes.

The book begins: Three weeks had passed since young Professor Peter Hartwang had mounted a camel, and now, on the Sinai Peninsula, he had at last found traces of the person whom he had gone to meet. To gain time for this journey to the East, he had closed the winter term earlier than usual, though it was by no means with a light heart, for the chirurgical department of the great hospital whose head he was could ill dispense with his services. Since its management had been entrusted to his care, he had not left, even for a single week, the great university where he taught. If any one took a serious view of science and professional duty, it was he, yet the claims of the heart also asserted their rights in his broad breast.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
