Egypt: The Opening Of The Great Canal (1869) is a historical book written by Alexander Russel. The book provides a detailed account of the construction and opening of the Suez Canal, which connected the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea, and revolutionized global trade and transportation. The author, who was a journalist and correspondent for The Times of London, provides a first-hand account of the events that led to the construction of the canal, including the political and economic factors that influenced the decision. Russel also describes the challenges faced during the construction process, including the harsh desert environment and the labor-intensive work required to dig the canal. The book also explores the impact of the canal on Egypt and the rest of the world, including the social and economic changes that resulted from the opening of this important waterway. Overall, Egypt: The Opening Of The Great Canal (1869) is a fascinating historical account of one of the most significant engineering feats of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
