About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Bonaparte in Egypt and the Egyptians of To-day, by Haji A. Browne. Read by Librivox Volunteers. Knowing the Egyptian as I know him, I cannot but think that he is greatly misunderstood, even by those who are sincerely anxious to befriend him. His faults and his failings are to be found at large in almost any of the scores of books that have of late years been written about him and his country; but, though not a few have given him credit for some of his more salient good points, yet none that I have seen have shown any just appreciation of him as he really is. (From the Preface)
