The Secret History of the English Occupation of Egypt is an inside look at the political machinations that were shaping Britain's diplomacy in a turbulent time.

First published in 1871, Egypt was in political turmoil, as Britain stepped in ostensibly to take control of a nation which owed it vast sums of money.

But there were other reasons, and deeper complications, which the author details through the course of this fascinating work.
