As a journalist based in Cairo, Ashraf Khalil was an eyewitness to the storm that brought down the Mubarak regime. He was subjected to tear gas alongside protesters in Tahrir Square, barely escaped an enraged mob, and watched the day-to-day devel- opments from the frontlines. From the halls of power to the back alleys of Cairo, he offers a one-of-a-kind look at a nation in the throes of an uprising. Liberation Square is a revealing and dramatic look at the revolution that transformed Egypt’s modern history.

From the earliest resthouses serving travelers on the Overland Route between Britain and Bombay to the grand Edwardian palaces on the that made Egypt the exotic alternative to wintering on the Riviera, the hotels of , Cairo, luxor, and were always about far more than just bed and board. As bridgeheads for African exploration, neutral territories for conducting diplomacy, head- quarters for armies, providers of home comforts for writers, painters, scholars, and archaeologists in the field, and social hubs for an international elite, more of importance happened in Egypt’s hotels than in any other setting. It was through the hotels that visi- tors from the west—the earliest adventurers, then the travelers and, finally, the tourists—experienced the Orient. This book tells the stories of Egypt’s historic hotels (including the Cecil, Shepheard’s, the Mena House, Gezira Palace, Semiramis, Winter Palace, and Cataract) and some of the people who stayed in them, from Amelia Edwards, lucie Duff Gordon, and Florence Nightingale to Agatha Christie, Conan Doyle, , and TE lawrence.

Afterglow of Empire Egypt from the Fall of the New Kingdom to the Saite Renaissance Aidan Dodson A valuable study of a little-known and turbulent period of Egyptian history

During the half-millennium from the eleventh through the sixth centuries BC, the power and the glory of the imperial of the New Kingdom crumbled in the face of internal crises and external pressures, ultimately reversed by invaders from Nubia and consolidated by natives of the following a series of Assyrian invasions. Much of this era remains obscure, with little consensus among Egyptologists. Against this back- ground, Aidan Dodson reconsiders the evidence and proposes a number of new solutions to the problems of the period. He also considers the art, Poisoned Legacy architecture, and archaeology of the period, includ- The Fall of the Nineteenth Egyptian Dynasty ing the royal tombs of Tanis, one of which yielded the intact burials of no fewer than five pharaohs. The book is extensively illustrated with images of this material, much of which is little known to non- specialists of the period.

Ancient Nubia African Kingdoms on the Nile Edited by Marjorie M. Fisher, Peter Lacovara, Salima Ikram, and Sue D’Auria Photographs by Chester Higgins Jr A lushly illustrated gazetteer of the archaeological sites of southern Egypt and northern Sudan For most of the modern world, ancient Nubia seems an unknown and enigmatic land. Only a handful of archaeologists have studied its history or unearthed the Nubian cities, temples, and cemeteries that once dotted the landscape of southern Egypt and northern Sudan. Nubia’s remote setting in the midst of an inhospitable desert, with access by river blocked by impassable rapids, has lent it not only an air of mystery, but also isolated it from exploration. Over the past century, particularly during this last genera- tion, scholars have begun to focus more attention on the fascinating cultures of ancient Nubia, ironi- cally prompted by the construction of large dams that have flooded vast tracts of the ancient land. This book attempts to document some of what has recently been discovered about ancient Nubia, with its remarkable history, architecture, and culture, and thereby to give us a picture of this rich, but unfamiliar, African legacy.

The History and Religious Heritage of Old Cairo Its Fortress, Churches, Synagogue, and Mosque Edited by Carolyn Ludwig and Morris Jackson Photographs by Sherif Sonbol A celebration of the history of religious life in the early Egyptian capital, in text and pictures

Just to the south of modern Cairo stands the historic enclave known as Old Cairo, which grew up in and around the Roman fortress of Babylon, and which today hosts a unique collection of monuments that attest to the shared cultural heritage of ancient Egyptians, Christians, , and Muslims. In this lavishly illustrated celebration of a very special place, renowned photographer Sherif Sonbol’s remarkable images of the fortress, church- es, synagogue, and mosque illuminate the living fabric of the ancient and medieval stones, while the text describes the history of Old Cairo from the time of the ancient Egyptians and the Romans to the founding of the first Muslim city of al-, focus- ing on the Jewish history of the area (exploring the famous Genizah documentss found in the Ben Ezra Synagogue that tell so much about everyday life in medieval Egypt), the early Coptic Christian church- es, some of the oldest in the world, and the arrival of the Muslims in the seventh century, their estab- lishment of al-Fustat on the edge of Old Cairo, and the building of the oldest mosque in Africa.
