Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The New Spirit in Egypt
What makes the life of a nation more interesting, and at the same time more difficult to follow, than the life of a man? It is the fact that it spreads over so much longer a space of time, and has so many more ups and downs The stages are not distinct. There are revivals of energy, re awakenings of national spirit, after long years of decadence. The curve is only per ceptible by those who view it steadily and whole. The same law governs all organisms, whether simple or complex. Youth, maturity, decline - that is the inevitable process. The forest is subject to the same in?uences which affect the individual tree.
