The Founder of Modern Egypt: A Study of Muhammad 'Ali

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'.
