Cairo, City of Art and Commerce

by Gaston Wiet

The evolution of the Moslem capital of Cairo is studied beginning with the Arab conquest, which led to the widespread intermingling of peoples on two continents, and ending with the discovery of the route around the Cape of Good Hope, which was to undermine Egypt's active international role. The book is written for people of various interests.
