Excerpt from The Emancipation of EgyptThe really well-meaning observer must, then, sponge his mental slate clean of all rank prejudice, he must divest himself of all those preconceived notions which may help to point a phrase in some party journal, may lend colour to some violent anti-english, anti-french or anti-egyptian diatribe serve well enough to redeem or condemn some particular policy, or blacken or whitewash the reputation of some particular politician. Hitherto, the mass of polemics, despite its embittered tone, has achieved few results, and what few results it has achieved have not been happy. It has excited national passion, produced a certain amount of useless agitation, and there things have ended. In the vast and substantial interests acquired by all the great European nations in Egypt it has effected no kind of change.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
