Description

Explore the dramatic transformation of Alexandria through the eyes of historian Michael J. Reimer. At the close of the eighteenth century, Alexandria was a small and unimposing town. Within just one century, it evolved into a major hub for Mediterranean commerce and served as the primary link between Egypt and the international economy. This book provides the first dedicated study to examine how the city underwent such a massive modern transformation. It looks closely at the surges of internal and international migration that shaped the urban landscape and the social fabric of the region. For students, researchers, and history enthusiasts, this work offers a detailed look at the connection between government and society during a period of rapid change. Published by Routledge, this text serves as an essential resource for understanding the historical development of Egypt's most important commercial center. Whether you are studying Middle Eastern history or the evolution of Mediterranean trade, this study offers deep insights into the era between 1807 and 1882.
