Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Nineteenth Century, Vol. 18: A Monthly Review; July-December, 1885
In saying this I do not wish to impugn the conduct of our representatives in Egypt. They might indeed have shown more regard for the external authority of the Khedive without impairing in any way the authority of England in Egypt. Still, so long as Egypt remains under a Protectorate, the Khedive must necessarily be a puppet; and this is the hard fact which dominates the whole situa tion. There may be two kings at Brentford, but there cannot be two kings at Cairo and the real king, so long as there is a Protec torate, Single, dual, or multiple, must be, not the Khedive, but the representatives of the protecting body.
