Napoleon's Egypt: Invading the Middle East by Juan Cole
Napoleon's Egypt: Invading the Middle East by Juan Cole
an interesting concept tell the invasion of Egypt by Napoleon through the perspective of the locals. Unfortunately it gets bogged down in social science jargon and drawing parallels to current American policy. Useful for the extensive translations of primary sources.
Mildly recommended.
