THE EGYPTIAN CAMPAIGNS, 1882 to 1885, and the Events which led to them. By Charles Royle, Barrister-at-Law. 2 vols. demy 8vo. With Maps and Plans. 30s.
"Mr. Royle has done well in the interests of historical completeness to describe not only the entire military drama, but also the political events connected with it, and whoever reads the book with care has gone a considerable way towards mastering the difficult Egyptian question."—Athenæum.
"The Egyptian fiasco has found in Mr. Royle a most painstaking, accurate, and judicious historian. From a literary point of view, his volumes may be thought to contain too many unimportant incidents, yet their presence was necessary, perhaps, in a complete record, and the most fastidious reader will unhesitatingly acquit Mr. Royle of filling his pages with anything that can be called padding."—St. James's Gazette.
