Napoleon to Nasser: the Story of Modern Egypt Raymond Flower

Raymond Flower's highly topical account of the course of events from Napoleon's invasion of Egypt in 1798 until the death of Nasser in 1970 makes compulsive reading for all those who wish to understand the background of Egypt's recent history and contemporary renaissance.

"The author is a man who loves Egypt and its people. This love is the 'leitmotif' of a graphic, evocative book with the tempo of the best kind of 55-minute TV documentary." -- Irish Press

Raymond Flower has written some two dozen books on a variety of subjects dear to his heart. In addition to Napoleon to Nasser, his publications range from histories of Italy, Southeast Asia and Western Australia to motor racing, winter sports and Lloyd's of London.
