About this title

Synopsis

This book tells the detailed story of the British and Egyptian military operations in Egypt during 1882. The author uses official British reports, accounts of officers on both sides, and other sources to describe the events leading up to the bombardment of Alexandria, the landing of British troops, and their subsequent campaigns against Egyptian forces under Arabi Pasha. The author examines the technological and tactical development of military strategy and equipment during these campaigns, setting them in the context of ongoing political and social upheavals in 19th century Egypt. This book offers valuable insights into the origins of the modern military-industrial complex and the multifaceted nature of warfare in this period.
