Synopsis

First published in 1931 and reprinted in 1967, this book is an historical and administrative study of the reign of Muhammad 'Ali (1769–1849). Mr Dodwell's purpose, in his own words, is 'to escape from the traditional hero of French and villain of English writers, and to ascertain by a study of original materials what Muhammad 'Ali really did'.

Revue de presse

Review of the hardback: 'This temperate study of the controversial character of Muhammad 'Ali, whom the author plausibly designates the founder of modern Egypt, probably comes nearer to the truth about him than any previous estimates by either English or French writers...Mr Dodwell has given a masterly portrayal of Muhammad 'Ali's character.'
