Power and Passion in Egypt: A Life of Sir Eldon Gorst, 1861-1911

When Sir Eldon Gorst succeeded Lord Cromer as Agent and Consul-General in Cairo in 1907, Britain effectively ruled Egypt and Sudan. The period Gorst spent in Egypt was critical in shaping Africa's history. This book offers an assessment of his contribution and argues that his was an honourable attempt to share government with the Egyptian people.
