A History of Egypt in the Middle Ages
This book contains Stanley Lane-Poole's 1901 work; "A History of Egypt in the Middle Ages". It is a comprehensive chronicle of Egypt in the Middle Ages from its conquest by the Saracens in 640, to its annexation by the Ottoman Turks in 1516. A fantastically detailed volume, "A History of Egypt in the Middle Ages" is recommended for all those with an interest in Egyptian history, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "The Arab Conquest, 639-641", "A Province of the Caliphate, 641-868", "Tulun and Ikhshid, 868-969", "The Shi'A Revolution, 969", "The Fatimid Caliphs, 969-1094", "The Attack from the East, 969-1094", "The Attack from the East, 969-1171", etcetera. Stanley Edward Lane-Poole (1854 - 1931), was a British archaeologist and orientalist. Many vintage texts such as this - particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before - are increasingly hard to come by and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
